The Rock and Ice Skates: Two Tales to Inspire Youth

The Rock
How can a rock that's nothing more than a rock become something greater? The plain, dull, and oh-so ordinary rock in this charming tale wants more for himself than the ugliness Life gave him. He wants to shine! Welcome to the hills and valleys of Life, where merely moving -- in any way that's possible -- is well worth the effort.

Ice Skates
Johnny lives with his parents in Northwestern Pennsylvania, where winters are cold and icy. And Johnny knows all about cold and ice -- especially the skating part. He knows he wants to learn to skate, now more than ever since the town made the pond in to a skating rink. As he practices hard and gains skill upon skill, Johnny also gains self-confidence and pride. And then, tragedy strikes! Johnny's dreams are crushed on the pond and his skates forgotten. It will take more than a sunny day to change Johnny's mind about his skates and to change his Winter and his life forever.
