From the Newbery Medal-winning author of Dead End in Norvelt, the uproarious final volume of Jack Henry stories

According to his new motto--A WRITER'S JOB IS TO TURN HIS WORST EXPERIENCES INTO MONEY--Jack Gantos's alter ego Jack Henry is going to be filty rich even before he gets out of junior high, for his life is filled with the worst experiences imaginable. For instance, in the course of the few months covered in this closing cycle of interlinked stories, Jack is humiliated by a gorgeous syncronized swimmer, gets a tattoo the size of an ant on his big toe, flubs an IQ test and nearly fails wood shop, and has to dig up his dead dog not once but twice. And that's not the half of it

At the close of this final book of semi-autobiographical stories, Jack may not end up rolling in dough, but he will prove once again a survivor, an 'everyboy' whose world may be wacko but whose heart and spirit are eminently sane (School Library Journal).

More than a library filler
Format: Hardcover
Wayne Grudem’s Christian Ethics is a thorough guide for thinking through real life moral questions from a clear biblical perspective. I originally bought this book because I thought it would look good for a display of books. I was pleasantly surprised as I began to read it. The book is detailed and the chapters are laid out in a way that makes it easy to dip into specific topics as needed, which is helpful for pastors, teachers, and laypeople alike. I especially appreciate how Grudem consistently grounds his arguments in Scripture and explains how he reaches his conclusions. His writing is clear, practical, and often pastoral in tone, rather than academic. If you are looking for a comprehensive, conservative evangelical resource on Christian ethics that takes the authority of the Bible seriously and applies it to a wide range of modern issues, this book is a valuable addition to your library...not just a decoration piece.

This Book Will Strengthen Your Faith and Answer Hard Questions
Format: Hardcover
This book is a must read for all Christians. You don’t have to be a student of theology to appreciate the lessons inside. It’s actually strengthened my faith and answered many questions when it comes to how a Christian should apply the Scriptures to living an ethical life. It is a large textbook but it reads very well and if you want to truly dive deeper to live a more Christ like life I would highly encourage you to read it.
