Wonderland Adult Coloring Book by Amily Shen

I have absolutely zero artistic ability, so with the onset of the adult coloring book revolution, I was thrilled!  I've tried a couple cheaper adult coloring books, but all of the designs were basically the same, and I was quickly bored with them.  Wonderland is not like that. Page after page of creativity abounds!  The designs are intricate, and eye catching, and cute (who doesn't want "cute"?).  Based on Alice in Wonderland, the book includes a few short snippets to go along with the coloring pages, as well as an "I spy" page or two, to keep people like myself from getting bored.  I would recommend this book for adults, or older kids with good fine motor control and a pack of sharp, colored pencils.

Hiding In The Light

http://www.amazon.com/Hiding-Light-Risked-Everything-Follow/dp/1601426968

This is a 5 star book, and it got rave reviews elsewhere, I just couldn't get into it.  It is the story of a Muslim woman who came to faith in Christ, and how it affected her relationship with her family.
