Little Threads (Elizabeth Prentiss)
$17.50Originally written in 1863 but as readable and enjoyable for today’s children as ever! It was Mrs. Prentiss’s intent that this gem of a book would be a tool by which children would learn the blessings of obedience. Read about the contrasting lives of Tangle Thread and Golden Thread, one of them being the cause of much grief for her godly mother, and the other the only bright spot in her poor mother’s world.
It was Mrs. Prentiss’s intent that this little gem of a book would be a tool by which children would learn more about obedience, in a pleasant format.
Prentiss was a daughter of one of the great revival preachers of the early 19th century, Edward Payson, but became soon known for her own excellence in writing books oriented to the family. She leads the reader to strengthen his trust in the Lord while spurring us to patience, hope, loyalty and goodness. Her dedication and love for the Lord can be seen both not only in her writings but also in the words of her famous hymn, More Love to Thee, O Christ.

My Golden Ship (Mary Ropes)
$14.75We all know what it’s like to harbor that gnawing feeling that rears its ugly head as envy. Even the Christian is not exempt, as we see in the case of Charlie. “But don’t it seem that some folks should have everything, and the other folks nothin’?” Charlie soon realizes that envy easily escalates to bitterness and resentment, and that his idea of “having everything” is far from the truth.
Through an unexpected encounter with the likes of Black Darley and Crafty Joe, Charlie is horrified to see envy’s hateful passion in their dark, evil plans. He must not shrink in fear, but must rally up courage to do what’s right in the face of imminent danger. Will he act quickly enough, or will it be too late?
