In Miyazawa Kenji and His Illustrators, Helen Kilpatrick examines re-visionings of the literature of one of Japan’s most celebrated authors, Miyazawa Kenji (1896-1933). The deeply Buddhist Kenji's imaginative dōwa (children’s tales) are among the most frequently illustrated in Japan today. Numerous internationally renowned artists such as Munakata Shikō, Kim Tschang-Yeul and Lee Ufan have represented his stories in an array of intriguing visual styles, reinvigorating them as picture books for modern audiences. Focusing on some of Kenji’s most famous narratives, the author analyses the ways artists respond to the stories’ metaphysical philosophies, exploring the interaction of literature, art and culture. Miyazawa Kenji and His Illustrators is richly depicted with full colour images of the representations of Kenji’s work, making the book a valuable resource on how illustrations shape story, and how these picture books continue to convey the texts’ witty and ironic messages more deeply than the written word alone.

Paul started this study in the early eighties. This is his first major work and critical study. Research for the past twenty years has ended. He is ready to share what he has found. The title of the book is Good Wednesday Palm Saturday, Fallacies of Easter and the Infallibility of the Holy Scriptures. Its two studies in one, but some how he connects them with a string of different but relative studies each standing on it's on. He calls these studies The Chronicles. Paul remembers as a small boy in Memphis, Tennessee attending the Early Grove Baptist Church, that he recall's asking himself the question on an Easter Sunday. The question was, how do you get three days from Friday to Sunday? That was over fifty-five years ago. After years of study and research the issue is quite clear. Jesus Christ is a Jew. Born under Jewish law and Jewish traditions. Paul also realizes there are two issues at stake. One is the trustworthiness of the Bible. The other is whether Jesus is truly God. Because If Jesus only spent thirty-six hours in the tomb, that is, from Friday at 6:00 p.m. until Sunday at 6:00 a.m. The Bible is deemed incorrect and Jesus is a false prophet. Jesus himself, said that he would spend three days and three nights in the heart of the earth, just as Jonah had spent three days and three nights in the belly of a great fish. Matthew 12:38-40. It seems normal that throughout the whole world the crucifixion of Christ is held on "Good Friday" and that the resurrection is acknowledged on Sunday morning at dawn. Why do Christians and none-Christians alike accept the Friday to Sunday burial of Christ? Probably just tradition. It's always been that way and anyway any part of the day constitute a whole day. What different does it make? He died and he rose that's the important thing, right? In the pages to comes you will read the chronology of the crucifixion week, after reading this book what decision will you make regarding this issue? The Second Chronicle The Bible is the only book that tells man where he came from and where he is going. It is the only book in the world that tells man where he needs to go and how to get there. Where he will spend eternity and why. What you read in the follow pages will take you to the edge of eternity. By writing this book I hope I can motivate someone to read the Bible, study and seek to see whether these things are true. In the second chronicle the book will point to the notion that earth is only six thousand or more years old. And that in year 3000 A. D. the earth will only be 7000 years old. Not even fifty thousand years old as carbon dating suggests. Carbon dating however accurate still has to make assumptions. You will also read about the harmony of the Holy Scriptures. How mathematics proves the inerrancy of the Bible. And that numbers are very important in Scripture otherwise they wouldn't be there. Also, the science of archaeology has continued to confirm the amazing accuracy of the Bible, even when the theories of man have contradicted it for many years. It is my hope that you read this book with an honest desire to know the truth. I believe I have presented the truth of the Scripture. However, truth can be found yet in other places. When you least expect it. Some of you have assumed all your life that the Irish potato is Irish; no it's not Irish. It's a tuber plant and it came from Peru. Mustard Gas is not a gas. It's a volatile liquid. Peanuts are not nuts. They are beans. June bug is not a bug. It's a May beetle. The horned toad is not a toad. It's a lizard. The English horn is not a horn, nor is it English. It's French and it is a woodwind. Finally, from my own study I find that Palm Sunday is really Palm Saturday and Good Friday is really Good Wednesday. The trouble is, that most people don't know

In the tradition of Marley & Me, "Cleo" is the story of an impish black kitten who teaches a grieving family to love and laugh again after the tragic loss of a child--"'We're just going to look.' Helen Brown had no intention of adopting a pet when she brought her sons, Sam and Rob, to visit a friend's new kittens. But the runt of the litter was irresistible, with her overlarge ears and dainty chin. When Cleo was delivered weeks later, she had no way of knowing that her new family had just been hit by a tragedy. Helen was sure she couldn't keep her--until she saw something she thought had vanished from the earth forever: her son's smile. The reckless, rambunctious kitten stayed. Through happiness and heartbreak, changes and new beginnings, Cleo turned out to be the unlikely glue that affectionately held Helen's family together. Rich in wisdom, wit, heart, and healing, here is the story of a cat with an extraordinary gift for knowing just where she was needed most"--Cover, p. 4.
