'Twelve Ordinary Men' is an academic book written by John MacArthur. The subtitle to this work is 'How the Master Shaped His Disciples for Greatness, and What He Wants to Do with You.' This is a great book that lets the reader get to know the why the Lord chose these men and the special calling they all received. It is a book that is well-detailed with selected Bible verses at the beginning of each chapter. 'Twelve Ordinary Men' would make a great discussion book for bible studies or even a few college courses. One can learn a lot from the ordinary people then and now.

A Chair for My Mother
I am going to start sharing some children's stories that I have not read before for a book I bought years ago 'The 20th Century Children's Book Treasury' where all the stories were selected by Janet Schulman. The first story that I read is called 'A Chair for My Mother' written and illustrated by Vera B. Williams in 1982. This is the story of a small girl and her mother and grandmother. The little girls mother works as a waitress and finds out it is not easy to save money for what is needed, but they do. After the dangerous event happens one day when the little girl and mother are coming home the neighbors are come together and helps them put things back together except for one thing. Vera has drawn pictures that make you feel cozy and warm. This is one story that could be used to teach various safety rules as well.
