Story time at the public library is the first exposure to books outside the home for many preschool children. For the librarian, it is an exciting opportunity to instill in youngsters a love of reading and books. But coming up with new ideas that hold the children’s attention can be trying. Until now. Here are 55 tried-and-true story hour programs with a thematic approach. All are highly flexible and adaptable across the full preschool age range. Most of the ideas are arranged under one of eight specific themes that include four to eight one-hour programs: barnyard animals, the Caldecott Medal, colors, families, a storytelling feast, the five senses, reptiles and amphibians, and around the world. There are also 18 individual holiday and seasonal programs. All story hours provide ideas for name tags, suggested audiovisual materials, recommended story, poetry and song selections, additional titles and a full description of the activity.

Janet Lloyd's book is a moving autobiographical account of the spiritual gifts forged through the crucible of a difficult childhood. It is a must read, not only for those coming to terms with losses in life, but also a valuable resource for pastors, counselors and other helping professionals. Her honest exploration of the emotional landscape of grieving with its struggle to claim selfhood is filled with homespun wisdom, flashes of humor and grace-filled compassion. - The Rev. Steve Best, Episcopal Priest and pastoral counselor, Medina, WA The Absence of a Life is an important addition to the literature surrounding human growth and development. Writing from lived experience and profound reflection, Janet Lloyd has given us an insightful and lucid perspective on her life without a father.

I can hardly wait to see the printed copy. - Katherine Dyckman,SNJM, Spiritual Director, Teacher and Co-author of four books including Inviting the Mystic, Supporting the Prophet (Paulist Press).

His nightly prayer is for someone to love. Could Sister Elaines niece be the one God sent for him?

This is the story of the Millen family, circa 1931 to 1945. The father is David and the mother is Eleanor. They have two daughters, hyperactive Grace, younger daughter, psychic Ann, and an infant son, Gilbert, who died when he was eight months old. After his son's death, David became increasingly abusive to Eleanor on Friday. She rationalized his abuse as a result of his grief over Gilbert's passing on Friday. As the years passed, David's abuse became extreme. When the girls were in their early teens, he struck Eleanor on the jaw and for the first time he knocked her unconscious. Grace ministered to her mother, but Ann stood toe-to-toe with her father, refusing to let him strike her mother again. Her ultimate reaction surprised, shamed and sobered him. He then realized it was time to reveal to his family the festering force that had been fueling his rage. His explanation for his ten-year reign of terror was stunning and almost unbelievable!
