Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Knowing My Identity, Part One: Five Big Questions Every Child Can AskOn the last Friday in May, eight-year-old Caleb Johnson's teacher hands out a yellow page called All About Me. Caleb fills in his name, his favorite food, and his favorite color. Then he reaches the last box, the one that asks what makes him special, and his pencil stops.Everyone else in third grade seems to know. Noah is the fastest. Ava sings every song from memory. Caleb is not the most anything, and he carries the empty box home and cannot sleep.The next morning he has five questions instead of one. Who am I? Where did I come from? Why am I here? What can I do? Where am I going? His parents drive him to Grandpa Samuel's house at the edge of town, and Grandpa does what he always does with big questions. He takes them one at a time, one Saturday each, all summer long.Through a dried sunflower head, a family photo album, a mended birdhouse, a lost little boy with a purple ribbon, and a porch at dusk, Caleb discovers what God's Word says about a child's worth. He learns that he was made in God's image, formed with care, known before anyone held him, given gifts to serve with, and offered a hope that does not depend on being the best at anything. By the end of August, the sunflowers along the back fence are taller than his father, and the empty box is no longer empty.Five Big Questions Every Child Can Ask is a Christian chapter book for readers ages seven to nine, with a King James verse for every chapter, a Reader's Discussion guide, memory verses, a family activity, and a prayer for the reader. It is the first book in the Knowing My Identity Series, which grows with Caleb through fifth grade and beyond.And the short version for the website: Eight-year-old Caleb cannot fill in the box that asks what makes him special. Over one summer of Saturdays, Grandpa Samuel takes his five biggest questions to God's Word, and Caleb learns where identity begins.
