Norman Rockwell's Faith of America Review

Norman Rockwell's Faith of America
Average Reviews:

This book is great. The author talks to Norman Rockwell's widow several months after Mr. Rockwell's death and her words are enlightening. The author travels to two of Mr. Rockwells home towns and speaks with people who posed for many of the pictures.
It was heart warming reading this book while looking at the nearly 100 pictures the author describes in detail.

Simple Acts of Faith: Heartwarming Stories of One Life Touching Another Review

Simple Acts of Faith will undoubtedly be classified as a "coffee table book," yet such a bland modifier hardly does justice to this unique collection of heart-warming stories. For one, they breathe life into Norman Rockwell's ageless paintings, while the portraits tantalize one's senses. As I read this book, I felt moved, but not back to the mythical "good old days" that only existed in people's somewhat memory. Instead, I found myself grasping the reality that community still exists wherever people take the time to care about each other. Such heroic acts make love a reality, in spite of the mad pace of the 21st century. That is something worth celebrating - and taking time to make happen in our own communities.

A cycle shop owner gives Lance Armstrong his first bike, and the rest is history.
The young, hurting Frank Peretti is shown compassion that opens up his heart.
One man's sharing of faith changed the life of shoe salesman Dwight L. Moody.

Mother's Day Review

I read this book to my class for Mothers Day. We visit Mrs Madoffs class as we have just about every holiday. (I want to be in her class, she is so nice)! The children discuss the different ways that they will celebrate the holiday, making breakfast, snuggling, and various other ways. The children were asked to bring in a button for class. The children used the button to make a tissue paper flower as a gift. The book gives step by step directions. As always Anne deals with the difficulties of the holday with a student who was celebrating with her grandmother as her mother had passed away. The craft is really cute, the children and mothers spent lots of time picking out their button and had little stories about why they chose that button. Mom's didn't know what the button was for and were so surprised that it was to make a flower. Really great!
