For the Anasazi, life depends on precious rainfall. But after weeks without rain, the land is drying up and the corn is dying. Soon Sosi's family will have to find a new place to live. Her mother and father are cross and tired as they pack; no one has time for Sosi. So she runs away, down to the bank of the small pool, and makes a family of mud dolls that dry in the hot sun. Here there is no crying or arguing. The mud father tells his mud daughter, "You are my lark, my lizard. I will weave robes for you and never scold." Sosi makes the mud girl dance for rain. And the rain does come, bringing Sosi back to the family that needs her most of all.

My Chair

A joyful celebration of two essential childhood gifts: the imagination to go anywhere, and a special place to take off from. On a sunny morning in the city, children gather in the park with their chairs. Tall chairs. Small chairs. Wiry chairs. Squashy chairs. Tires and boxes and sofas and swings, chairs with rockers and chairs with wheels. As the kids come together, they each say what they love about their chairs and show the places their dreams can take them. But why is everyone meeting in the park? And what's in the wrapped present that hides in every picture? An extraordinary collaboration between two gifted artists, MY CHAIR is a celebration of the importance of community and the power of imagination.

Don't Eat The World is a compilation of blog posts written to help young families enjoy, honor, and teach God's Word in our homes. Making disciples around the kitchen table is a wonderful and weighty calling, and we are constantly thankful that God lives with us and helps us in this good work. My family and I pray you will be encouraged and helped by the ideas within.
