The Humble Stone - Hardcover

Paulus, David: - When I was a young child, my mother introduced me to the excitement and wonder of children's literature, which I found fascinating. For most of my adult life I contemplated writing for children. Having mentally structured the bones of a tale to introduce young children to virtuous living, I always found a reason not to write it. One evening this past year my wife and I were dinner guests at our neighbors' home. In conversation, my desire to write a children's book surfaced. While explaining the overarching theme and outline of the story, eyes lit up around the table and encouraging voices agreed that the story should be written. Out of excuses, the following morning my thumbs were tapping on my iPhone and within a couple hours, the first draft of The Humble Stone was completed. This is the first book in a series of stories that will focus on showing children how to grow in virtue. It is my sincere hope that a warm dialogue will develop between -parents and children while reading this entertaining account of one journey toward humility.Wuest, Linda: - Linda Wuest is an artist who followed her childhood dream of studying art at The University of Texas. She ultimately, however, became a nurse, always maintaining her passion for her art. She continued to paint and found ways to share her art with her patients at the cancer center by creating murals at Christmastime and other projects for their ACS Relay for Life team. She now paints full-time in acrylic, alcohol ink, and water color. She is a member of several online art -communities, and her water color won the Craftsy Winter Spotlight Challenge in 2017. Her -passion is to create art that reflects Scripture and Worship Music, -sharing God's message of hope and joy with the world. When David Paulus read his story The Humble Stone to her, she was so moved by the message that she knew she wanted to create the art for this wonderful story!
