Top Picks for Kindle eBooks
1. Stones into Schools: Promoting Peace with Education in Afghanistan and Pakistan – eBook
This book is not only popular – it looks as though it could be quite interesting. This is the story of how the Central Asia Institute built schools in northern Afghanistan – and the frequently warm reception they received. However, the way was also fraught with danger.
2. The Pioneer Woman Cooks: Recipes from an Accidental Country Girl – eBook
The author, who lives on a ranch with her family, presents readers with a selection of simple to complex recipes, including homemade cinnamon rolls, guacamole, chicken fried steak, and rib-eye steak with whiskey cream sauce. I’m always a fan of checking out new recipes–and from the description, these could be fun–especially with all the ranch ambiance peppered about.
3. Heaven is for Real: A Little Boy’s Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back – eBook
When four-year-old Colton nearly died during surgery, he went to a place on “the other side” and experienced what is being interpreted through this work as being heaven. Keep in mind as you read that the boy’s words are interpreted through his father, so it’s not by any means an unbiased work – but it could be an interesting read – whatever your religious beliefs happen to be.
