There’s a strong biblical connection between people and trees. They both come from dirt. They’re both told to bear fruit. In fact, arboreal language is so often applied to humans that it’s easy to miss, whether we're talking about family trees, passing along our seed, cutting someone off like a branch, being rooted to a place, or bearing the fruit of the Spirit. It’s hard to deny that trees mean something, theologically speaking.

Recognized today as the undisputed master of the American Gothic horror story, Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1949) revealed his genius in tales of death, terror, evil, and perversity. Highly skilled in achieving a calculated psychological effect, Poe created chilling fictional nightmares permeated by mysterious forces, grotesque creatures, and improbable hallucinations.
Poe's immense powers as a storyteller are at their peak in this anthology containing nine of his best-known short stories. Among them are "The Murders in the Rue Morgue," a gripping 19th-century detective story that provided a model for future mystery writers; "The Fall of the House of Usher" and "The Masque of the Red Death," pervaded with eerie thoughts, impulses, and fears; "The Tell-Tale Heart" and "The Cask of Amontillado," masterpieces of wickedness and crime; "The Pit and the Pendulum," with its agonizing specter of imminent and horrifying death; and "The Gold-Bug," a fascinating detective story that combines romance and adventure in an absorbing tale of buried treasure.
Mystery lovers and horror story enthusiasts will find this inexpensive collection, by one of the great masters of the form, an exciting addition to their personal libraries.

The Golden Children’s Bible was chosen because of its slightly simplified, but poetically appealing, King James text, along with its beautiful and age-appropriate illustrations.
This is important because we believe students should learn to revere the Bible as a sacred book, distinct from modern adventure stories with cartoon heroes.

In this last book in the trilogy about Gabrielle Allan, the reader finds Gay and her Great-Aunt Belle about to start a new life in a setting far different from their much-loved Drovers Road. The sheep station of Cape Lost is now Gay’s responsibility and, despite her three years’ study at the Massey Agricultural College, both the isolation and tasks ahead seem alarming. For such a remote and nearly inaccessible spot, however, surprising arrays of new and old characters meet on its windswept, sea-edged expanse. First, the shearing crew turns up, without their cook, just as Gay’s manager quits.
As soon as that dilemma is faced, and Gay and her aunt are again alone, there’s a knock on the door—coming immediately after a radio warning about an escaped prisoner! At the Christmas gathering of the entire Allan clan, Gay’s enjoyment is severely hampered by something she’s got hidden in the shed. And when a new manager is finally found, Gay unexpectedly gains his unhappy daughter and romantic-minded son. While she is glad for the love and support of her family—and friends, such as Simon Ware and Clive Scott—Gay grows as she learns to bear the responsibility for her own decisions, the bad as well as the good. The landscape of Gay’s world has altered in more ways than one, but facing its varied challenges promises to bring to her all the belonging and stability her home-loving heart desires.
In this final book of the Drover's Road Collection, Joyce West deftly brings her colorful tapestry of New Zealand country life, of a time now past, to a satisfying finish.
