Reader and Educator Guide to “The Hobbit” and “The Lord of the Rings”

Houghton Mifflin Harcourt

Price: FREE

More for teachers than for students, the book includes discussion topics (most without answers), quizzes (with answers), learning objectives for 9 units, and links to websites for further exploration. I think this book is an excellent gift to teachers and homeschoolers…

This is a remarkable book about love and God and friendship and good coming out of horrible situations! I don’t want to spoil the story, so I won’t go into detail, but I really recommend this book! I was very impressed with the author!

Montana Territory in 1883 was a dangerous place – especially for a blind woman struggling to make her way through an early winter snowstorm. Undaunted, Noelle Kramer fought to remain independent. But then a runaway horse nearly plunged her into a rushing, ice-choked river, before a stranger’s strong, sure hand saved her from certain death. And yet this was no stranger.

Though she could not know it, her rescuer was rancher Thad McKaslin, the man who had once loved her more than life itself. Losing her had shaken all his most deeply held beliefs. Now he wondered if the return of this strong woman was a sign that somehow he could find his way home.

For Stella and Josh, being friends has always been easy.

But things change and being friends isn’t what either wants anymore.

Love Me If You Must

Nicole Young

Price: FREE

Stumbled onto this book in my local library. It is well written and sucks you into the story so that you have to read all three of the books to be satisfied with the ending. When I saw it on the free listing one day, I had to get it on my Nook to read again. The language is clean and the action and suspense is gripping.
