The Secret Society is eerily possible and may be scarier to moms than to their kids. But I would still highly recommend it for kids and adults. It poses some great launching pads for ‘what if’ kinds of questions. Not to scare, but to make you think, at least on an individual level. I personally couldn’t put it down. And I don’t think my son will let me go very long between chapters when we dive into it also!

A few days after the book came, my 9yo said “I want to learn more about Isaac Newton!” So we started this book, to get a taste. We learned a few things, had a ton of laughs, and every time I tried to stop reading, there was a very insistent “2 more chapters please!” so I’d call this an absolute win! Even the 4 year old sat still! About the Book Book: The Newton Chronicles: Soldiers, Crystals, and Temples Author: Terry Overton Genre: Middle Grade Christian Fiction … Read More

Why Read Christian Steampunk Books? Christian Steampunk books explore a unique ‘what if’ that really … Read More
