2018 ECPA Christian Book Award Winner 2018 Christopher Award Winner Two best friends, 500 miles, one wheelchair, and the challenge of a lifetime. Friendship takes on new meaning in this true story of Justin and Patrick, born less than two days apart in the same hospital. Best friends their whole lives, they grew up together, went to school together, and were best man in each other’s weddings. When Justin was diagnosed with a neuromuscular disease that robbed him of the use of his arms and legs, Patrick was there, helping to feed and care for him in ways he’d never imagined. Determined to live life to the fullest, the friends refused to give into despair or let physical limitations control what was possible for Justin. So when Justin heard about the Camino de Santiago, a 500-mile trek through Spain, he wondered aloud to Patrick whether the two of them could ever do it. Patrick’s immediate response was: “I’ll push you.” I’ll Push You is the real-life story of this incredible journey. A travel adventure full of love, humor, and spiritual truth, it exemplifies what every friendship is meant to be and shows what it means to never find yourself alone. You’ll discover how love and faith can push past all limits—and make us the best versions of ourselves.

Caldecott Medalist Dan Santat--creator of The Adventures of Beekle: The Unimaginary Friend and After the Fall--takes readers on the road trip of a lifetime! "Are we there yet?" Every parent has heard this classic kid question on a long car ride--and after reading this astonishingly inventive new book (that even turns upside down for several pages!), you'll never look at being bored the same way again.

The boy was just trying to get to his grandmother's birthday party, but instead he's traveling through Ancient Egypt and rubbing shoulders with Ben Franklin. When time flies, who knows where--or when--he'll end up.

There's only one rule in Larry's book: don't push the button. (Seriously, don't even think about it!) Even if it does look kind of nice, you must never push the button. Who knows what would happen? Okay, quick. No one is looking... push the button. Uh, oh.

This book tries subtly to drop a hint in the mind of its readers that, despite ‘free will’, the gods might still be at play in the affairs of humans, using their characters to influence them in this world of duality where opposing poleheads persistently struggle to dominate the environment. While some cooperate wittingly to varying degrees, somehow godlike, some remain for the most part of it unwitting, thus puppets whose passions are the control strings in the hands of the gods and the godlike Should one dare, in philosophical imagination, to think God gave birth to twins, then this is replayed in Orisha, who made the mystical Rosary for his twins, Orishagbemi and Orishadami, to solve humanity problems, but who later fought after his transition, like darkness and brightness; a fight that caused the loss of the Rosary in the valley of crocodiles. The fate of humanity will depend on which side repossesses this Rosary. The descendants of these twins found expressions in two respective organizations. At the apex of one is Bwallangwu, immortal entity and the personal representative of Lucifer on earth. The opposing side, some members of an ancient religion, for certain reasons is hiding and could hardly get organized into a credible force. They engaged the service of a certain person in mask. One finds reoccurring in the book this duality phenomenon like mystical allegories and proverbs Eventually, Orisha that started it would end it in favour of the better side, to be decided by humanity themselves, for themselves.
