DOWNLOAD EBOOKYou can blow up your life. To bring strong and tall buildings to the ground, demolition experts strategically place tiny explosives throughout the structure of a building so that the building will topple on itself. Instead of destroying the building from the outside, they destroy it from within. In the same way many great men and women have imploded, and others are well on their way. Author Eric Geiger offers a sobering reminder that many great and godly people have imploded, and none of us are above the risk. Looking at the story of David’s infamous implosion, readers will learn how to ruin our lives (so we won't), and also how to find hope if we do--as all of us need His grace.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKEver wondered what those shop mannequins get up to when the lights go out and the doors are bolted? Do they just stand there like a bunch of bored statues, or do they break into a wild dance party? Could it be that they have dreams and feelings, or are they just plastic and cloth? Well, wonder no more! Welcome to the fascinating world of Nightlife of Mannequins, a delightful children’s book; another imaginative work by Dandy Ahuruonye. In this whimsical tale, we peek into the secret life of mannequins. They’re not just lifeless figures, but animated citizens with dreams, friendships, and even a bit of drama! Meet Dante, the dashing mannequin who dreams of breaking free from the monotonous shop life. “I was made for more than just displaying clothes,” he often muses. Then there’s Reyonda, the elegant mannequin who’s head over heels for Dante. “He’s not just a mannequin; he’s a masterpiece,” she swoons. And don’t forget Runke, the chic mannequin who’s also got a crush on Dante and is ready to give Reyonda a run for her money. “Competition keeps things interesting,” she quips. But the fun doesn’t stop there. The grumpy shop owner, Rondra, despises the mannequins and wants to control their every move. “Mannequins should be seen and not heard,” she grumbles. Enter Mallory, the detective mannequin, who’s on a mission to protect the mannequins from Rondra’s tyranny. “Justice will be served, even if you’re made of plastic,” Mallory declares. And then there’s Sharp, Jijiji, Brand, and Clampp, who form Mallory’s squad, each with unique skills to crack the toughest cases. Join us as we follow their escapades, from breaking out of the shop, exploring the city, learning new skills, facing dangers, making mates, falling in love, and finding joy. Watch them as they traverse the cityscape of Dublin, awestruck by the architectural wonders that silently narrate the city’s rich history. From ancient castles that loom like giants, to majestic cathedrals that reach for the sky, and modern skyscrapers that reflect the city’s progress. The mannequins marvel at Dublin’s vibrant culture, its lush parks, and the serene River Liffey that flows like the city’s lifeblood. Their journey takes them to charming shops and cosy cafes, each offering a unique taste of Dublin. They savour the city’s culinary delights, from mouth-watering cakes and chocolates to the comforting warmth of its exceptional coffee. They watch the city’s inhabitants, each face telling its own story, each expression a window into their lives. The city’s traffic, a symphony of scooters, cars, buses, and bikes, moves in a rhythm that’s uniquely Dublinic. Nightlife of Mannequins is not just an adventure; it’s a celebration of curiosity, friendship, freedom, and the joy of learning. Ahuruonye’s wit make this book engaging for young readers.
