Cover... Related Items Children | "Thee, Hannah!" scold Mother, Grammy Welsh, and sister Sally as
Hannah struggles to grow up as a good Quaker girl in Philadelphia just
before the Civil War. It seems that nine-year-old Hannah is always
getting into scrapes. She doesn't want to listen to "old Spotty," but
it's so hard to wear a plain bonnet that pinches her ears, and a plain
dress with no lace! Hannah yearns for the flowered bonnets ad hoop
skirts her friend Cecily wears, and often sneaks away to "dress up."
Catch a glimpse of Quaker life as Hannah and her family go to Meeting and to market, host a gathering of Friends, enjoy ice skating and other pastimes. Join Hannah as she helps bring an escaped slave woman and her sick son to safety. Will Hannah ever understand the value of plain dress, and learn to be contented as a Friend? Find out in the picture storybook for young readers. | |
| Some Fruits of Solitude: Wise Sayings on the Conduct of Human Life by William Penn | View shopping basket | |

paperback, 168 pages, $8.95 | Add... | |
Cover... Related Items Devotional Gift Ideas | As a Quaker preacher, minister, and missionary in the late 17th
century, William Penn was imprisioned for his faith many times. After
being falsely accused of treason, Penn was forced into hiding. During
those three years of imposed solitude, he had time to think, reflect,
and reevaluate. Some Fruits of Solitude is the product of
that time alone. In it, Penn distills the essence of his spiritual
idealism, combining it with practicality and commons sense.
Translated into today's English by Eric K. Taylor, Penn's wisdom is even more accessible to the contemporary reader. Penn's voice can once again be heard in its simplicity and timelessness-sharing his fruits of solitude. "I can hardly wish you anything better than seriously considering what you do with your time. Using time well is the greatest wisdom and work of life." -William Penn. Copyright 2003. | |

Cover... Related Items Peace Church Of The Brethren | A call from Mennonites, Quakers, Church of the Brethren, and the
Felloship of Reconciliation to all Christians to renew discussions
about peace, war, militarism, and justice. Douglas Gwyn, George
Hunsinger, Eugene F. Roop, and John Howard Yoder, editors, offer an
ecumenical dialogue on the morality of war, grounded in a biblical
vision common to all Christian communions. This book declares that peacemaking is essential to Christian discipleship. It is the vocation of the church as a whole. Moving beyond the traditional debate around "pacifism," this statement seeks dialogue concerning a renewed vision of the entire purpose of God in the world. Copyright 1990. | |
