Prelude to War
Edie and Carl Schmidt didn't think things could get worse at school. But that was before the German navy began blowing American ships out of the water. That was before the rumors started, whispers that said Germany was going to invade the United States through Mexico. That was before their good friend Truman Vaught left to drive an ambulance on the battlefront in France. Now their best friends think Carl and Edie may be traitors just because their father is German. What can Carl and Edie do to prove their loyalty?
Reading Jonathan Edwards
This compilation of reader response to Jonathan Edwards, spanning 276 years, includes a reprint of two earlier works ? Jonathan Edwards: A Reference Guide (1981) and Jonathan Edwards: An Annotated Bibliography (1994) ? and the publication of a third, a gathering of commentary from 1994 to 2005. Nearly 140 essays have been added to the first and second works, while the last new gathering ? which includes a celebration of the tercentenary of Edwards??'s birth ? adds another 700 to the whole. The text preserves the pattern of arranging items alphabetically within a given year and of recording cross-references. Essays in a collection are annotated serially rather than alphabetically. Each of the three sections is self-contained with an introduction and annotated bibliography of its own. Adding to the immense value of this work to Edwards scholars are the chronology of Edwards??'s works, listed by date and by short and long title, which precedes the entire work, and the three comprehensive indexes ? of authors and titles, of subjects, and additions to the previous volumes.

Rumblings of War
Their family has settled into a new home on Seattle's Queen Anne Hill, but things aren't going well. Audrey Harrington doesn't fit in at her new school. She's so smart, the other students call her 'Audrey Einstein.' When she makes mistakes on purpose to quiet their teasing, her grades drop.

Then there's her friendship with a Japanese family-and in 1939, with the world on the brink of war, hers is not a popular position. Using actual historical events to tell a compelling fictional story, Mandy the Outsider is a poignant tale of a girl balancing her desire for acceptance with her need to do right, and to be who God wants her to be.

When a major spiritual revival breaks out, Maggie is convinced she must dare to help the slave. Using actual historical events to tell a compelling fictional story, Maggie's Dare explores both the Great Awakening and the early stirrings of the abolition movement, while showing young readers that they, too, can serve God by serving others. Sisters in Time books offer learning and fun, at a great price!
