Superheroes seek adventure, never give up, and stay calm when others are afraid. Superheroes are brave. But they aren't the only ones. Kids are brave every day.

Like superheroes, brave kids can save the world, just by being brave. Thoughtful text from Stacy McAnulty paired with vibrant illustrations from Joanne Lew-Vriethoff encourage kids to be brave in all the ways they can: trying new things, speaking their mind, confronting bullies, and more. This book will inspire kids to follow their hearts and to have courage, no matter the situation.

The New York Times–bestselling author of Inkheart and Dragon Rider delivers an “inventive re-imagining of the knight-in-shining-armor story” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Igraine dreams of becoming a famous knight just like her great grandfather, but the truth is, life at the family castle is rather boring. Until the nephew of the baroness-next-door shows up. He’s got a dastardly plan to capture the castle and claim as his own the wonderful singing spell books that belong to Igraine’s magician parents. To make matters worse, at the very moment of the siege, her mom and dad botch a spell, turning themselves into pigs! Aided by a Gentle Giant and a Sorrowful Knight, it’s up to Igraine to be brave and save the day—and the books! “Illustrated with pen-and-ink sketches of Igraine in action, plus many tiny tomes sporting stubby limbs and animated faces, this engaging read, or read-aloud, is ‘joust’ the ticket for all young fans of non-gender-specific knightly valor.” —Kirkus Reviews
Each of us has the right of choice, whether we know it or not. Our choice, however, is typically predetermined by the nature of our heart. Inevitably, our life will reveal the consequences of our choices. Three Big Pigs and the Words of Life is a combined allegory of the classic childhood story,, and the renowned teaching of Jesus, "The Parable of the Sower." Each big pig's life depicts the nature of the individuals Jesus described, the choice each made toward the Words of Life, and the consequences of their choice. Wolfe represents the surreptitious nature of the enemy of life, whose only aim is to kill, steal, and destroy. From this story, the significance of the choice we make toward the Word of God is revealed.
