Inspire kids to doodle and dawdle in God's Word, and you open the door to a refreshing and clever new way for them to experience the Bible. When kids ages 8 to 12 years doodle their way through the Old and New Testaments, they will better remember God's Word, visualize spiritual truth, and put it all into practice when a life moment calls for it. With loads of humor and a big dose of fun, cartoonist Jonny Hawkins encourages kids to add their creative touches to his sketches as they explore Bible verses that speak into their lives.

An unexpected collection from Norman Mailer—a book of his selected poems and more than one hundred of his drawings, most of them never before published. Modest Gifts is full of what the author calls “casual pleasures”—witty, naughty, and surprisingly tender verse and art. Lust, seduction, betrayal, jealousy, and even the banality of cocktail party chatter are depicted with humor, affection, and, above all, honesty. Here is an aspect of Norman Mailer unknown to many: lighthearted, prankish, whimsical, and often gentle, playfully sketching the intimate urban world that surrounds us. Modest, funny, and true, each poem and drawing shows a new side of one of the greatest writers of our time.

More than seven decades have passed since Ben Burroughs' poetry first appeared in a Philadelphia newspaper. The impact of his talent-completely lacking as it is pretentiousness- has been so great that today his daily “SKETCHES” appears in sixty-eight newspapers and is followed my millions of readers throughout the world. How can one account for such a phenomenon? The explanation lies in the very nature of Burroughs' verse, for he is truly a poet of the people, a disciple of sincerity, one who can capture the magical moments that imbue us all with a deepened insight into life's mysteries. Through his warm. Perceptive understanding, the beauty and grandeur of daily living are reveled. This is not a poet who hides his meanings and demands we seek them out. Rather in words that are so eloquent in their simplicity and graceful in their flow, he presents to us “emotional recollected in tranquility.” Wordsworth tells us this is the true definition of poetry. What of a poet himself? What manner of a man is he? Humility is perhaps the dominant virtue characterizing Burroughs' creative efforts. Modest in the light of his success, he is appreciated that he has been blessed with the talent that enables him to erase some of the drabness that is common in daily living. No ivory tower recluse, he follows the tradition of art that draws its sustenance from the life as it is lived by the many.

Caldecott Medalist Allen Say presents a stunning graphic novel chronicling his journey as an artist during WWII, when he apprenticed under Noro Shinpei, Japan's premier cartoonist DRAWING FROM MEMORY is Allen Say's own story of his path to becoming the renowned artist he is today. Shunned by his father, who didn't understand his son's artistic leanings, Allen was embraced by Noro Shinpei, Japan's leading cartoonist and the man he came to love as his "spiritual father." As WWII raged, Allen was further inspired to consider questions of his own heritage and the motivations of those around him. He worked hard in rigorous drawing classes, studied, trained--and ultimately came to understand who he really is. Part memoir, part graphic novel, part narrative history, DRAWING FROM MEMORY presents a complex look at the real-life relationship between a mentor and his student. With watercolor paintings, original cartoons, vintage photographs, and maps, Allen Say has created a book that will inspire the artist in all of us.
