A picture book about refugees and animals that will make you catch your breath on the last page. There are millions of refugees around the world and many are held in detention centres for years, including children. In recent times, it feels as if the world's refugee crisis has become a political issue instead of a humanitarian one. With haunting echoes of contemporary society's treatment of refugees, A Grain of Hope is a dual story on facing pages of a dog called Dok and a refugee girl named Hanan. Both are escaping unsafe lives and their stories mirror each other until the end when one ends happily and the other is still unfinished. It opens discussion about compassion and hope with older readers, from the ages of 8 to adult. The beautiful, watercolour and pen illustrations by Aldy Aguirre are a beautiful accompaniment to a hard hitting, but necessary, story which questions society's willingness to sometimes assist animals quicker than we assist humans. It is suitable for classroom use with facts provided about refugees at the end of the book and a wealth of moral, social, financial and ethical concerns to be discussed. More information is available at Nicola's website to assist with such discussions. A Grain of Hope will keep you thinking, long after the end cover is closed.

In the heart of Ukraine’s fertile lands, thirteen-year-old Oksana Kovalenko leads a simple life with her family. The rolling fields and rustic charm of her small farming village are all that she knows. That is, until the Soviet Union takes power, and her world is turned upside down. As increasing authoritarianism and threats of land and food confiscation loom, Oksana fights to protect her loved ones from hunger and the loss of everything they hold dear. Her strength and resilience are tested as she is forced to navigate through the chaos, witnessing immense suffering as famine erupts due to the regime’s grain requisition. Threatened with being labeled an Enemy of the State, her family and friends endure persecution. She watches in horror as her village is reduced to starvation and despair. Forming unexpected alliances, she finds courage in friendship as she joins an underground movement that plans covert operations to feed starving villagers. Throughout this ordeal, Oksana grows from a hopeful schoolgirl into someone determined to protect her heritage at all costs. The premise revolves around themes of survival against tyranny, familial bonds in times of crisis, loss of innocence amidst political upheaval, and the resilience required to withstand historical tragedies such as famine and purges that characterized Stalin’s rule over Ukraine. A Grain of Hope reminds us of the human toll of war and oppression and pays tribute to the strength of the human spirit. Oksana’s story will stay with you long after you’ve turned the last page.

I began writing first drafts of Grain of Hope in 1988. It has been quite the journey. My book reveals an intimate portrait of struggle and pain, and ultimately, perseverance and prevailing over the insurmountable. It represents peace and new beginnings. For me, the book eloquently illustrates an arduous journey that shows that, even when I felt I couldn't go on, I did.A tiny grain of hope kept me going day after day. I liken hope to a grain because a grain is a tiny seed that yields an abundant field of wheat. In comparison, the smallest effort of hope I could muster yielded a plentiful supply of sustaining power that I desperately needed during a crucial time in my life.My journey starts and begins with the search to find merit for living and moving on with my life. When I reached my most weakened and emotional state, I discovered how to tap into the innate power of "hope." Hope and belief in God is what I know sheltered my mind and empowered me to pick up the pieces of my broken heart. It gave me the acceptable peace that I so desperately needed to rebuild my shattered life. With Grain of Hope, I hope to inspire others to do the same. I hope you will be empowered to pick up the pieces of your broken heart, mend them together again, and begin to live a wholesome life in the face of any crisis or tragedy.

Love, insecurities, divorce, career adventures, questions about belonging, embracing a disability, losing a parent. These and more are grains put together with love, honesty and hope by Zohra Damani. As Zohra shares her life openly with you, it is with the intent of creating hope. Hope that you are not alone. Hope for days when you feel that your world is crashing, so you still have something to hold onto. Hope that you will accept yourself in every shape and form. Hope that no matter how hard the journey is, you won't give up on yourself. Not today, not tomorrow, not ever. As you read, if you find that none of these grains apply to you, then simply take it with a grain of salt. But if they do, then sprinkle them throughout your life, savor the journey, and share them with others you meet, so that we lost souls may walk alongside each other.

This is a biography of G. Christopher Willis, a Canadian missionary to China from 1921-1949. His Christian literature publishing and distribution was the last Protestant missionary work in China after the Communist takeover, continuing for another ten years under Communist rule. At a time when the church in China entered a period of prolonged spiritual famine, there remained a storehouse of Christian literature to feed the hungry and build up spiritual leaders, enabling them to faithfully feed their flocks. Today the church in China is the single most powerful witness of New Testament Christianity, standing as a witness to the Western church as it flounders in materialism and liberalism. This book is also a study of spiritual fruitfulness, using the biography as a case study to understand Jesus' words "Unless a grain of wheat" and their practical meaning in daily life. There is a way forward for a floundering Western church, to follow along the narrow path that Jesus has called it to walk.

During and after the Second World War, there was a concerted thinking about religion in Britain. Not only were leading international thinkers of the day theologians--Ronald Niebuhr, Paul Tillich, Jacques Maritain--but leading writers contributed to discussions about religion. Graham Greene, Muriel Spark, and Barbara Pym incorporated miracles, evil, and church-going into their novels, while Louis MacNeice, T. S. Eliot, and C. S. Lewis gave radio broadcasts about the role of Christianity in contemporary society. Certainly the war revived interest in aspects of Christian life. Salvation and redemption were on many people's minds. The Ministry of Information used images of bombed churches to stoke patriotic fervour, and King George VI led a series of Days of National Prayer that coincided with crucial events in the Allied campaign. After the war and throughout the 1950s, approximately 1.4 million Britons converted to Roman Catholicism as a way of expressing their spiritual ambitions and solidarity with humanity on a world-wide scale. Religion provided one way for writers to answer the question, 'what is man?' It also afforded ways to think about social obligation and ethical engagement. Moreover, the mid-century turn to religion offered ways to articulate statehood, not from the perspective of nationhood and politics, but from the perspective of moral action and social improvement. Instead of being a retreat into seclusion and solitude, the mid-century turn to religion is a call to responsibility.
