    The Bible is chock full of stories and object lessons that we can apply to our daily lives. And there are a great many incredible commentaries, storybooks, Bible study aids, and other resource material that help elucidate what has been written. However, there are few, if any, that give voice to the voiceless in these stories. For example, have you ever wondered how the story of Jesus' birth would have read if the manger where He was swaddled were given a voice with which to speak? How would it have described the scene of the very weary Mary, having been shuttled from place-to-place in need of rest, as she and Joseph were shown the only place available for the birth of Jesus? How would it have described the privilege it had to cradle the King of the universe in contrast with the water and animal feed it had been accustomed to containing? Would it have had an opinion concerning the fact that the most honored child was dishonored by being relegated to a place designated to shelter beasts? Fresh Perspectives: Bible Stories Voiced by the Voiceless, Volume 1 (Part of the Endless Book Series) is written from the perspective of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil written of in Genesis 2:16-17. The Lord has much to say to all in the story of Adam and Eve's encounter with sin, and the Tree can give us a fresh perspective. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: L. David Harris.

    Award-winning author Linda Williams Jackson pulls from her own childhood in the Mississippi Delta to tell the story of Ellis Earl, who dreams of a real house, food enough for the whole family?and to be someone. It's 1967, and eleven-year-old Ellis Earl Brown has big dreams. He's going to grow up to be a teacher or a lawyer?or maybe both?and live in a big brick house in town. There'll always be enough food in the icebox, and his mama won't have to run herself ragged looking for work as a maid in order to support Ellis Earl and his eight siblings and niece, Vera. So Ellis Earl applies himself at school, soaking up the lessons that Mr. Foster teaches his class?particularly those about famous colored people like Mr. Thurgood Marshall and Miss Marian Wright?and borrowing books from his teacher's bookshelf. When Mr. Foster presents him with a copy of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Ellis Earl is amazed to encounter a family that's even worse off than his own?and is delighted by the Buckets' very happy ending. But when Mama tells Ellis Earl that he might need to quit school to help support the family, he wonders if happy endings are only possible in storybooks. Around the historical touchstone of Robert Kennedy's southern ?poverty tour,? Linda Williams Jackson pulls from her own childhood in the Mississippi Delta to tell a detail-rich and poignant story with memorable characters, sure to resonate with readers who have ever felt constricted by their circumstances.
