As ya’ll know, I’m a huge fan of Tommy Nelson books and my family has loved receiving their books over the past 6 months. I’m excited to announce that in just a few weeks, I will be working with Tommy Nelson to bring you an awesome Twitter party with the launch of a new book they have coming out! Be watching this blog for more details on when the party will be and how you can make sure to be there. You will be amazed at the awesome prizes that will be handed out.
This month, “The Oak Inside The Acorn” by Max Lucado was delivered to our home and my 5 year old loves it. Best for ages 5-10. This is definitely a book you will want to add to your library!
A little more about the book: “It was hard for Little Acorn to believe he would ever be a big, strong oak tree. Soon Little Acorn grew into Little Oak. But now what was he to do? He couldn’t grow oranges like the orange tree or flowers like the rose bush. He just grew and grew until he became Big Oak, and his branches were big and strong-but still he didn’t know what he was to do. Then one day Big Oak found that his strong branches were just right for a very special purpose. The Oak Inside the Acorn is the story of the miracle inside each of us. For within every child is the special person God created, just waiting to grow.”
My favorite quote from this book is: “Just be the tree God made you to be,” said Mother Oak. I love that this book really stresses how important it is for us to remember to be the person God made us to be. There is only one of us, so we need to try to make it be the best we can in all areas! Encourage your children to be the best they can be before God!

Dear Megan,
Thanks for having such a lovely site and having the book the Oak Inside The Acorn. Its a great read For an adult like me as I am a big kid at heart and the simpler things are the easier they are to understand. I also love the idea of home schooling as I think sometimes the schools are only concentrating on productive zombies from a by gone era. True they use modern technology and supposedly methods but still think they are training us to be controlled drones. What do you think Megan?
