Faith in God can be exciting, daring, and fun. Love Does for Kids shares some of the Goffs' wild adventures--from holding a neighborhood parade to writing presidents from around the world to creating a town in the backyard tree. Children will laugh, dream, and be inspired to make a difference for God. As a little boy with a big personality and even bigger dreams, Bob Goff had lots of questions, and they didn't go away when he grew up. It wasn't until he learned just how big and wild and wonderful God is that he began to find answers. Once Bob learned about the deep goodness of God, he got to learn about the great power God gives His kids when they live a life full of love for others. Kids everywhere will love Bob and Lindsey's stories about how love does. With childlike faith, enthusiasm, and great whimsy, young readers will feel instantly connected to a love that acts as much as it feels. Children will walk away with a sense of wonder of how great God is and will feel empowered with things they can do that will make a tangible difference in the world. Bob and his daughter, Lindsey, who lived out many of these faith adventures, offer kids an invitation to get to know God better and to see the world as a place designed to be changed as we put our faith in action. In the same way that Love Does strikes such a deep chord with adults, young readers will experience God in new and thrilling ways and see that living out our faith is certainly not boring! Lindsey Goff Viducich is a teacher with a great love for kids. Her daily interaction with kids helped create a book that is perfectly suited for the attention span and interest of 6- to 10-year-olds. Love Does for Kids features 45 true, humorous, and exciting stories, charming four-color art, and an unforgettable message: that love does. The lessons drawn from the Goffs' stories might just inspire you to be secretly incredible too.

James Patterson

Bestselling author James Patterson's best book for boys in years! Tired of being bullied, middle-school underdogs "Pottymouth" and "Stoopid" finally fight back with the power of funny. David and his best friend Michael were tagged with awful nicknames way back in preschool when everyone did silly things. Fast-forward to seventh grade: "Pottymouth" and "Stoopid" are still stuck with the names--and everyone in school, including the teachers and their principal, believe the labels are true. So how do they go about changing everyone's minds? By turning their misery into megastardom on TV, of course! And this important story delivers more than just laughs--it shows that the worst bullying doesn't have to be physical...and that things will get better. A great conversation starter for parents to read alongside their kids! Official Notice to Parents:There is no actual pottymouthing or stupidity in this entire book!(Psst, kids: that second part might not be entirely true.)

Everyday Disasters and Impending Doom

An instant New York Times bestseller, Booki Vivat's Frazzled is the first installment of a funny middle grade graphic novel series about a girl who is always in a tizzy.

"Hilarious." (NPR's All Things Considered)

"Honest, sweet, and laugh-out-loud funny. Fans of Smile and Diary of a Wimpy Kid will appreciate this debut." (Brightly.com)

Meet Abbie Wu. Abbie is in crisis--and not just because she's starting middle school or because she's stuck in a family that doesn't quite get her or because everyone seems to have a Thing except her. Abbie Wu is always in crisis.

From author and professional doodler Booki Vivat, Frazzled dives right into the mind of this hilariously neurotic middle school girl as she tries to figure out who she is and where she belongs. Akin to Smile by Raina Telgemeier, Frazzled is heavily illustrated, embarrassingly honest, and sure to appeal to anyone in the middle of figuring out how to survive the everyday disasters of growing up.
