by W.G. VAN DE HULST Illustrated by J.H. Isings This book is intended to be a book for mothers. A book to be read in quiet hours, to little ones of four to seven or eight years old who sit at Mother’s knee. A book to be read slowly, yes, especially slowly; very clearly with warm, loving reverence and awe which creates in little children’s heart a pious reverence and a joy filled awe. It desires to be a BIBLE FOR THE LITTLE ONES, reaching out to all areas of a child’s understanding. A child does not comprehend everything, yet understands a great deal. This story bible wishes to tell about the holy things in plain, clear, almost simple language, which still must never profane the consecrated happenings. It is not meant to be complete. Completeness would hinder children. This book is not meant to be anything but a modest, reverent endeavour to lead the little ones into the holy sphere of Godly things. The interest of the little ones will be the test to see whether this endeavour is accomplished. May God give our little ones His wonderful blessings in the quiet hours, listening to His voice at Mother’s knee. — The Author Subject: Bible Age: 7-10 ISBN 1-894666-69-0 US$29.95 |
by Cor Van Rijswijk These hard cover Bible story books are wonderful. Children just learning to read can use them as little readers, either reading them on their own, reading them aloud, or reading them along with the narration on CD. Yet what every child enjoys most is being read to. Here are Bible stories written in a language which is simple and reverent. These are stories which edify both adults and children. The drawings must also be given due attention: they are simply beautiful. Real to life, they are a great contrast to the modern concept of Bible cartoon characters. There is a great need for good reading for children. Here is a good beginning. Rev. J. Visscher in Clarion: "These books are usually about 40 pages long, are well-illustrated by Rino Visser and are faithful, biblical renderings. They make for good birthday presents to four and five year olds." Abraham's Sacrifice ISBN 1-894666-21-6 (84) - US$ 10.90Gideon Blows the Trumpet ISBN 1-894666-22-4 US$ 10.90

Woven throughout is the theme that Abraham knew by implication and believed that the animal sacrifices he offered pointed to the perfect sacrifice of the Son of God. Psalm quotations from the Book of Praise illustrate this theme. The tension of Abraham's struggle to obey is made very clear. It was not only his love for Isaac, but especially the knowledge that the Lamb of God would come through his heir, that caused Abraham the agony of soul when the command came to offer His son Isaac. This Bible story is told from the redemptive-historical viewpoint redemption stands central. We gladly recommend this book for children approximately 6 to 10 years old." |

by Piet Prins Struggle for Freedom Series 4 General Valdez had mercilessly surrounded Leiden with his Spanish troops. Rather than attacking the city, he let a different weapon do the work. This weapon was hunger. Hardly anyone could get into the city or out of it, and the hunger, together with the black death wreaked death and sickness among the citizens. Elisabeth Govaerts was having trouble keeping her father and brother as well as their lodger Boudewyn fed and in good shape. It was therefore a feast when Martin Meulenberg managed to creep through the Spanish fortifications and bring Elisabeth food. But the time was short since Martin wanted to join the Sea Beggars again. He left the city with reports of starving people. Even so, the Prince of Orange was doing his best to free Leiden. But even after the dykes had been breached by the Sea Beggars the water would not rise, and thus the Sea Beggars could not sail into Leiden to liberate it. Help seemed impossible.

 THREE MONTHS UNDER THE SNOW by J.J. PORCHAT This morning when I awoke, I found myself in complete darkness, and at first supposed that my sleep had quitted me at an earlier hour than usual. However, I heard my grandfather feeling his way about, and I rubbed my eyes, but did not see a bit better.“Grandfather,” said I, “you are up before daylight.”“My dear boy,” he answered, “ if we were to wait for the light of day, we should remain long enough in bed. I fear the snow is above the window.”At this I uttered a cry of horror and leaped out of bed. I soon lighted our lamp, and we were then able to perceive that my grandfather’s conjecture was well-founded.“But the window is low,” he added, “besides, it may be that the snow has been heaped up in this part; perhaps we should not see it above two feet deep at some paces from the wall.” Time 19th Century Age: 9-99 9781894666190 - US$ 11.90

It was hunger that drove 12-year-old Boris and his friend, Nadia, to forage for potatoes in the forbidden No-man’s-land that lay between the Russian and German lines outside the besieged city of Leningrad. But the long walk in the bitter cold, through miles of ice and snow, was too difficult for Nadia. As she lay on the ice, collapsed from exhaustion, Boris was at his wits’ end. When German patrol rescued the children and delivered them safely to the Russian lines, Boris learned that the hated enemy were not monsters — just ordinary men like any others — and that in war, everyone is the victim. Set in Leningrad during the dreadful 500 days in 1942-43 when it lay under siege by the German army, Boris is the story of a courageous boy who faces the bitter life-and-death realities of war and human survival, and, with a growing sense of compassion for all mankind, looks hopefully toward the future when all men can lay down their arms and embrace one another as brothers. "A beautifully realized parable of war, death, kindness, and endurance . . . enormously effective." —School Library Journal Jaap ter Haar was a Dutch historian who served in the World War II underground. Both his histories and his children’s books have been translated into many languages and have received literary awards. Boris was chosen as Book of the Year in Holland and also won the Youth Award of the City of Rotterdam. Time: 1942-1943 Age: 10-99 ISBN 978-0-921100-72-8 US$10.90 |

Bruning in Una Sancta about Vol.4 - The Partisans, and Vol. 5 - Sabotage: . . . the country was occupied by the German military forces. The nation's freedom was destroyed by the foreign men in power. Violence, persecutions and executions were the order of the day, and the main target of the enemy was the destruction of the christian way of life. In that time the resistance movement of underground fighters became very active. People from all ages and levels joined in and tried to defend the Dutch Christian heritage as much as possible. The above mentioned books show us how older and younger people were involved in that dangerous struggle. It often was a life and death battle. Every page of these books is full of tension. The stories give an accurate and very vivid impression of that difficult and painful time. These books should also be in the hands of our young people. They are excellent instruments to understand the history of their own country and to learn the practical value of their own confession and Reformed way of life. What about as presents on birthdays?

A Story of France in the 18th Century Huguenot Inheritance Series #10 "Father!" Eugène burst forth, unable to withhold his tidings. "Father, the king is dead! The wicked rebels in Paris have slain him, slain him on the scaffold. Think of that! The king, the Lord’s anointed, Louis of France!" A flush overspread the old man’s face, a tremor passed through his frame. Had he been able, he would have sprung from his seat, but he could not; one of his lower limbs was paralysed. So he lifted up his white and trembling hands to heaven, and said with deep feeling, — "God is just. His holy will be done." Eugène was amazed. This way of taking a hideous crime, a terrible calamity, seemed to him incomprehensible. But then, as he reminded himself, his father was not quite like other people. However, he could not help saying, — "I think it looks much more like the devil’s will, my father." Time: 1789-1815 Age: 13-99 ISBN 978-1-77298-014-1 US$8.90

But not until Mademoiselle has need of me no longer." "My need must yield to higher claims. And I own that it would be a joy to me to give back to God the best and dearest gift He has given me in these sad later years. But we will do nothing rashly or in haste. Meanwhile believe me, dear child, that I can feel for thy sorrow. Renunciation, however clearly we may see the duty of it, can never be anything but pain, bitter pain. Yet it is in such pain that Christ draws near to us, and gives us the foretaste of His joy." "I know it, Mademoiselle," whispered the pale lips of Geneviève. "And now go and pray for thyself and for me. I also will pray for thee. Kiss me, dear child. So — once more — lip to lip and heart to heart. God bless thee! God make thee in very truth the saint I dreamed of being, but am not, and shall never be." Time: 1650--1670 Age: 13-99 ISBN 978-1-894666-15-2 US$18.90

All that has been told of the sufferings, the faith, and the patience of the Church in the Desert — or, as her children loved to call her, "The Church under the Cross" — is true, and within the truth. Especially the character and the history of Majal-Désubas owes nothing to the pencil of fancy. It is a portrait, carefully drawn from contemporary sources, from the memoirs, narratives, and popular songs, in which grateful hearts have embalmed a beloved and fragrant memory. Time: 1745-1760 Age: 16-99 ISBN 978-1-894666-13-8 US$13.90
A Story of Old Paris Huguenot Inheritance Series #13 The narrative here presented is offered to the reader as a picture of a state of society which has passed away for ever. It aims at reflecting the men and women of the "old régime" as they acted, thought, and suffered; especially taking note of those who, in that age of infidelity and corruption, yet lived and walked "as seeing Him who is invisible." Time: 1760s Age: 16-99 ISBN 978-1-894666-12-1 US$13.90
A Story of France in the 18th Century Huguenot Inheritance Series #14 Among those who could not get away was an aged man, who had almost fulfilled his fourscore years of life. Him the soldiers took, and were leading him away to prison. His son, who was in another part of the Assembly, knew nothing of it until, having reached a place of safety, he sought everywhere for his father, and could not find him. His young active feet soon retraced their steps. He met the soldiers with their captive on their way to the town. Madly Fabre threw himself into their midst, and made a wild despairing effort to tear their prisoner from their grasp. Vain — vain of course! What could one man, alone and unarmed, do against a band? Time: 1760s Age: 12-99 ISBN 978-1-77298-005-9 US$8.90
The Huguenot’s Family by Henszen Veenland Huguenot Inheritance Series #15 "Julie!" he cried in surprise, "What brings you here on such a stormy day?" "I wanted . . . I came . . ." The woman could not finish. She was pale as a ghost, and seemed utterly stupefied. "Please, come inside where it’s warm." Dropping his hammer at his feet, Catel took his neighbour’s arm, and led the dazed woman to the cottage. Henri hovered a few steps behind, greatly concerned. In the Catel’s warm front room, Julie fell into the first chair, her eyes staring vacantly before her. With a deep sigh, she bent listlessly to unfasten her sodden cloak.
The woman looked up, her eyes brimming. "Annette!" she whimpered. Time: 1685-1695 Age: 12-99 ISBN 978-1-77298-095-0 US$12.90

". . . was sorting through old pictures today and
found this one. It was taken eleven years ago . . . on my
son’s birthday party. See all those party boys
listening to a beautifully told Bible story by Anne
DeVries! We have read these books over and over and they
are now falling apart. I would love to buy a big stack to
equip my grown up children (we have nine — all busy
growing) [with] these two bible story books so they can
read them to their children. They are written precisely
to Scripture, by a man who clearly understood God’s
redemption plan and portrays it in a faith-building way.
I have bought and read other Bible stories but none so
able to build a child’s faith. My Mom read these
books to me and my siblings in Dutch and how I loved
them. So I am pleading with you to republish them."
