Ideals Publications, 2007

The novel's message that excitement, change and new adventures are possible for women in mid-life is appealing
Melody Carlson, who launched the first book in the Tales from Grace Chapel Inn multiple-author series, returns to write this sweet, homespun third installment, which picks up seamlessly from the two previous novels. In BACK HOME AGAIN, Carlson began the story with an account of three middle-aged sisters --- Alice, Louise and Jane -- who return to Acorn Hill, PA, after the death of their adored ...

When you want something light and soothing

Veteran author Melody Carlson (who has written more than 90 books) pens book one in the Tales from Grace Chapel Inn.

Heads up~this is now called "The Christmas Bus"
I couldn't find any synopsis on this book and so I was clueless that this is now known as "The Christmas Bus". After reading "The Christmas Bus", I wanted to read other Melody Carlson books and ordered "No Room At The Inn". Needless to say, I was a little disappointed receiving the same story. Regardless, the story is great and I enjoy it very much! SYNOPSIS for "No Room At The ...

Wonderful book
This book focuses on being thankful for all things in life--from the smallest of things (the green grass, noses, giggles and many more) to the more important things in life (Mommy and Daddy and families). Prayers are very short and rhyme. Prayers about behaviors are included in this book such as a couple about being sorry for acting bad and learning to share. The book is small--perfect for tiny ...

Kudos to Carlson for a job well done

"Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem."
I hope no one has ever experienced the death of someone close to them. Unfortunately the majority of people have. It's even more sad when you know someone who's committed suicdie. As the 2nd most common form of death among teengers, it's very rare to go to a high school that has not experienced the effects of it. Even more scarier are the number of teens who have considered the thought of taking ...
