The Missing Element in Storytelling

Revisado: 10-31-24

After hearing these stories I was thinking that though there are many human stories to tell, the missing element in modern fiction is… God. Here, there are broken people, hurting people, but there is hope, and love, and sacrifice. This author has only been recently made known to me (though he was well known in his day) and I have found a richness in his writing that leaves you contemplating the people and ideas long after you have read about them.

An (Unknown?)Treasure

Revisado: 10-29-24

I called this an unknown treasure because I had never known of this author before but it is accurate to say that he writes for those “of any age who are childlike, whether 5 or 75”— as a grandmother, I think many children would benefit from these stories, which reveal deep truths and promote good character in anyone who is open to it. I knew of C.S.Lewis and his Narnia stories for children, but now I put George MacDonald right up there with him!

Life and Death, Despair and Hope

Revisado: 06-09-24

I don’t want to give too much away but this short story is deep and asks the most important question: what is life all about? That is the question that most people do not stop to ask because they are too busy and distracted to slow down and consider… but it’s best to settle it while there is still time— Ivan had to struggle with it as his illness progressed & death was imminent. Read and find out his ultimate answer.

Thoughtful read if you’re married without a perfect marriage…

Revisado: 04-27-24

I’m amazed at how accurately the author can write dialogue between married couples (& children)! Parts of the story really made you think and I was actually surprised at the ending— Highly recommend!

Basic

Revisado: 07-05-22

This basic explanation of what the U.S.A. is founded on, while clearly written for children, should be given to the average public school student of any age since these simple facts are often unknown by them since no one taught them.
