Bryson the Brave Bison, Courage to Face The Storm ~ Written by Nate Davenport & Luke Freshwater Illustrated by Richard Cowdrey ★★★★★

 

Finding Courage to Face the Storm
BRYSON THE BRAVE BISON
Written by Nate Davenport & Luke Freshwater
Illustrated by Richard Cowdrey


Oh my goodness! This book is staying in my collection! It has such a terrific message on bravery that kids need to hear and read. 


I fell in love with this book from the first sentence, 
"Bryson the bison was born rather small, Not like his dad who was twenty hooves tall." 

What made it love at first sight? Well, I have a new grandson. Little One was just 5 lbs and 14 oz when he was born. He was and is just perfect, just born rather small. Just like Bryson. I just know that my little guy is going to love hearing that line read to him someday.


Look at those illustrations! Are they not precious! Richard Cowdrey filled the book with fun, fresh, illustrations that all children will love— especially boys. Nate Davenport and Luke Freshwater wrote a postive, impactful story of bison children facing their greatest fear— a storm without their parents!

Bryson showed smarts, strength of character and bravery to help his friends find the best solution and a new way of looking at storms. 

I absolutely loved that it was written in rhyme. Children's books are so much fun to read when they are written in rhyming couplets.

I think this book has the potential of becoming a classic. I won't mind reading it over and over. Well done, gentlemen!

Five stars from this retired homeschooling grandma to a new baby boy!

    This looks like a great book! I, too, love reading books to my grands that rhyme. It really catches their interest from a very young age. Thanks for the review.
    Blessings,

Thanks for writing me back!

This life only works with Jesus. The next life is a continuation of this one—make sure you spend it with Jesus. Jesus is the only way to God the Father!

The Post I've Been Avoiding... The Diagnosis

Hello my dear readers and friends, You've no doubt noticed a change in my blog over the last few weeks and seen hints of health troubles and tests. This is the post I've been avoiding. I just haven't been ready to identify with the problem nor am I sure I want to now. After all, God is the God of miracles. I need miracles, I'll bet you do, too. Here goes. ​  I found a lump on April 22nd. It's been an earth shaker to me and my family for the last few weeks.  This was the cause of the exhausting rounds of tests and appointments. Yes. It is breast cancer. It's in all the lumps in my left breast and in a lymph node. My mother and maternal aunt both had breast cancer many years ago.  To answer a few questions you might have: The CT scan showed no cancer in the rest of my body. Praise God! The oncologist scheduled me for chemo first because it is an aggressive cancer. They want to shrink it first before surgery. I will also have mas...

My Spicy Can Opener Soup was published in Gooseberry Patch Hometown Christmas!

Just had to share this with you again.   My recipe was published in Gooseberry Patch Hometown Christmas! I have to admit, I was truly surprised when I received a letter from Gooseberry Patch requesting permission to use my recipe in their newest Christmas cookbook.  I've sent in some more complicated recipes, but this one is easy peasy! It's truly a recipe that I threw together using items from my nearly bare kitchen cupboards last winter. I called it Spicy Can Opener Soup.  They changed the name, but the ingredients remain the same.   I was thrilled to receive my very own copy of the book .  Of course, I had to make it up and take some photos to share with you dear ladies. It's simple, quick, and delicious. It's also one of those scrape the bowl clean recipes. It's just this simple. Spicy Can Opener Soup 1 can black beans 1 can Mexican corn with peppers 1 can Rotel type tomatoes w/chiles 1 package of Taco Seasoning Mix and simm...

I'm a big city girl gone small town girl gone country and finally gone back to small town. I live in southern Missouri between Oz and the Ozarks.  I have four children. My daughters live at home. My twenty-four year old daughter is finishing her master's degree through online university, and my 20 year old daughter goes to Christian college. My sons live on their own nearby.

He is actually bigger than our little Doxie mix, Penny.   I enjoy writing, knit...
