A Ride to Remember

A Civil Rights Story

By: Sharon Langley,Amy Nathan

The true story of how a 1963 ride on a carousel in Maryland made a powerful Civil Rights statement. A Ride to Remember tells how a community came together—both black and white—to make a change. When Sharon Langley was born in the early 1960s, many amusement parks were segregated, and African-American families were not allowed entry. This book reveals how in the summer of 1963, due to demonstrations and public protests, the Gwynn Oak Amusement Park in Maryland became desegregated and opened to all for the first time. Co-author Sharon Langley was the first African-American child to ride the carousel. This was on the same day of Martin Luther King Jr.’s March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. Langley’s ride to remember demonstrated the possibilities of King’s dream. This book includes photos of Sharon on the carousel, authors’ notes, a timeline, and a bibliography. “Delivers a beautiful and tender message about equality from the very first page.” —Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review “Cooper’s richly textured illustrations evoke sepia photographs’ dreamlike combination of distance and immediacy, complementing the aura of reminiscence that permeates Langley and Nathan’s narrative.” —Publishers Weekly, Starred Review “A solid addition to U.S. history collections for its subject matter and its first-person historical narrative.” —School Library Journal

The Lie That Binds

By: Amy Argent

I am a liar. I lie to protect myself. I lie because I’m terrified. I lie to keep a secret that would destroy everything in my life if everyone knew. Holly is the new girl at school and my unwilling lab partner. She hates me because I’m one of the popular guys—one of the bullies who terrorize the unfortunate and the unpopular. For me, it’s who I’ve had to become to keep anyone from getting too close—close enough to see right through me. When Holly finds out my secret, I have to do whatever it takes to keep her quiet—even if it means telling the most damaging lie of all—the one I tell myself.

The Amish Homestead Collection

A Place at Our Table, Room on the Porch Swing, A Seat by the Hearth, A Welcome at Our Door

By: Amy Clipston

Amy Clipston’s beloved Amish Homestead series is now available in one collection. A Place at Our Table Working at the fire department and running his Amish farm keeps Jamie Riehl busy. But when he meets Kayla Dienner, he is smitten. Kayla tries hard to deny her attraction to Jamie. The death of her older brother in a fire is fresh in her mind—and she can’t bear the idea of putting her heart on the line every time the sirens blare. Then tragedy strikes, and Jamie wants to extinguish any flame between him and Kayla. Can Kayla set aside her own fears to save the love she was determined to deny? Room on the Porch Swing Less than a year after her mother’s death, Laura Riehl finds herself burying another loved one: her best friend, Savilla, who dies after a brief and sudden illness. Laura feels heartbroken and alone, but her pain is nothing compared to that of Allen, the husband Savilla has left behind. When Laura offers to help Allen with his baby, he jumps at the opportunity. She’d do anything to lend a hand and to honor her best friend’s memory. Rudy, Laura’s boyfriend, is initially supportive of her plan, but the more time Laura spends with Allen, the more jealous Rudy becomes. As Laura and Allen face hardships together, their friendship takes a surprising yet comforting turn. Would falling for Allen betray the people she cares about, or would denying those feelings betray her heart? A Seat by the Hearth Priscilla Allgyer left the community to escape the expectations of Amish life. Now, years later, she is forced to return—along with her six-year-old son. As Priscilla reluctantly completes her shunning, she catches the eye of Mark Riehl, a farmer with a reputation. Wary of Mark, Priscilla barely gives him the time of day—while Mark, unused to being ignored, won’t give up the pursuit. Priscilla desperately needs a friend in Mark, even if she doesn’t realize it—and after Priscilla’s father and the bishop catch her and Mark in a compromising situation, their relationship becomes more complicated than ever. A Welcome at Our Door Cindy Riehl has watched her brothers and sister find love and happiness. But as her family has settled down and grown, Cindy has continued to grieve her mother. Since that haunting day, Cindy has struggled to find peace and wonders if the community is the place for her—and if her faith in God will ever be like it once was. When one of the Riehl cows escapes to visit another cow down the lane, Cindy chases after it and meets a handsome Englisher named Drew. As they become friends and eventually much more, she is drawn further and further away from the Amish community and the family she loves. Will Cindy find happiness of her own?

The Power of Equivocation

Complex Readers and Readings of the Hebrew Bible

By: Amy Kalmanofsky

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

The Power of Equivocation

Complex Readers and Readings of the Hebrew Bible

By: Amy Kalmanofsky

In The Power of Equivocation Amy Kalmanofsky addresses the Bible's inherent complexity as well as the complexity of those who seek to read the Bible critically, generously, and honestly. The Bible invites what Kalmanofsky identifies as equivocal readings--readings that do not reach neat conclusions related to ideology or character. Kalmanofsky demonstrates the Bible's complicated artistry through her close readings of six biblical narratives that feature women: she examines culpability in the story of Joseph and Potiphar's wife and shows how the Bible presents neither figure as a hero or villain; considers how the Bible's portrayal of Hannah both conforms to and also defies the Bible's patriarchal norms; how the Bible affords the rejected King Saul compassion and respect through a powerful yet unlawful medium from En-Dor; how Queen Esther overpowers men to become the equivocal hero of her eponymous book; how Tamar in Genesis 38, like Hannah, conforms to and challenges the Bible's patriarchal norms and how, like Esther, she is the equivocal hero of her story; and how the Bible presents Bathsheba as a complicated figure, both vulnerable and powerful. Kalmanofsky draws from the challenges she personally feels as a feminist, as a Jew, and as a scholar to argue that equivocal readers like herself are best equipped to see the Bible's complex artistry. Equivocal feminist-religious readers are suspicious and generous readers who can expose the ways in which biblical texts empower and disempower women and who can provide essential insight about the Bible's theology and ideology. Through her close readings, Kalmanofsky models what it means to be equivocal readers of an equivocal Bible. The Power of Equivocation is marked by honesty and the celebration of a text that can never be read just one way.

Love and Music (and Missing Ted Callahan)

A Novella Sequel

By: Amy Spalding

A hilarious and romantic novella sequel to Kissing Ted Callahan (and Other Guys). This is it. This is the day Riley Jean Crowe-Ellerman officially becomes a ROCK STAR. It's summer, school's out, and Riley's band The Gold Diggers is playing their first music festival halfway across the country. It's the most exciting day ever, except for one small detail: Riley's boyfriend Ted is away at a Young Leaders summer program and can't be there to witness this momentous occasion. Riley hasn't seen Ted in three whole weeks--she misses his perfectly floppy hair, his kissable lips--and when he sends her a cryptic text that just says, "I'm so sorry," Riley starts to get nervous. TED! WHAT ARE YOU SORRY FOR?! But there's no response. Suddenly the best day of Riley's life might become the worst. Is this the end of Riley and Ted Callahan? Or can love and music keep them together?

The Enigmatic Parables of a Controversial Rabbi

Short Stories by Jesus

The Enigmatic Parables of a Controversial Rabbi

By: Amy-Jill Levine

The renowned biblical scholar, author of The Misunderstood Jew, and general editor for The Jewish Annotated New Testament interweaves history and spiritual analysis to explore Jesus’ most popular teaching parables, exposing their misinterpretations and making them lively and relevant for modern readers. Jesus was a skilled storyteller and perceptive teacher who used parables from everyday life to effectively convey his message and meaning. Life in first-century Palestine was very different from our world today, and many traditional interpretations of Jesus’ stories ignore this disparity and have often allowed anti-Semitism and misogyny to color their perspectives. In this wise, entertaining, and educational book, Amy-Jill Levine offers a fresh, timely reinterpretation of Jesus’ narratives. In Short Stories by Jesus, she analyzes these “problems with parables,” taking readers back in time to understand how their original Jewish audience understood them. Levine reveals the parables’ connections to first-century economic and agricultural life, social customs and morality, Jewish scriptures and Roman culture. With this revitalized understanding, she interprets these moving stories for the contemporary reader, showing how the parables are not just about Jesus, but are also about us—and when read rightly, still challenge and provoke us two thousand years later.

Together, 2nd Edition: An Inspiring Response to the "Separate-But-Equal" Supreme Court Decision that Divided America

By: Amy Nathan

The inspiring story of how Keith Plessy and Phoebe Ferguson, descendants of key figures in the infamous Supreme Court case Plessy v. Ferguson, have come together to fight for racial equality. Keith Plessy and Phoebe Ferguson were both born in New Orleans in 1957. Sixty-five years earlier, in 1892, a member of each of their families met in a Louisiana courtroom when Judge John Howard Ferguson found that Homer Plessy could be charged with breaking the law by sitting in a train car for white passengers. The case of Plessy v. Ferguson went all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, which ruled that “separate-but-equal” was constitutional, sparking decades of unjust laws and discriminatory attitudes. In Together, Amy Nathan threads the personal stories of Keith and Phoebe into the larger history of the Plessy v. Ferguson case, race relations, and civil rights movements in New Orleans and throughout the U.S. This second edition includes a new epilogue describing a triumph that occurred a year after the first edition was published. In 2022, the Plessy and Ferguson Foundation, which was created by Keith and Phoebe in 2009 to change the legacy of the case that links their families, worked with a legal team and won a posthumous pardon for Homer Plessy. Includes black and white photos throughout.
