| Marlene Fritsch | | Noah Doesn’t Need an Umbrella | | 5 Minute Bible Stories | | Illustrated by Elli Bruder |
“Can you imagine that? At the very beginning, there wasn’t anything at all. No people, no animals, no trees, no beach and no ocean. God found it boring. And empty and lonely. So he decided there should be something. He said, ‘Let there be Light!’ and just like that, there was light. ‘Hmm, always light, that’s not so good’, he thought. So he separated the light from the dark. The light pleased God and he called it day. The dark he called night. And then the first day of the world was over!” |

| Marie-Thérèse Schins | | I’m Practicing for Heaven | | A Story of Life, Friendship and Death | | Illustrated by Isabel Pin |
Isha’s parents aren’t called Mama and Papa, but rather Mammamoma and Pappapipo – because they are hospitals clowns at a children’s cancer ward. Isha would like to be a hospital clown when she grows up, too. Sometimes she is allowed to come along when her parents perform for the children. |

| Rudolf Atsma | | Paula's Letters | | Stories of Jesus for the Curious |
Did Jesus ever go to preschool? Where did he learn to read and write and do math? Did he have brothers and sisters? What kind of mother was Mary? What did Jesus think once he understood that he was the Son of God? Paula’s head is filled with questions – and none of them are answered in the Bible. So she decides to write a letter to her former Sunday school teacher, and an interesting correspondence results. |

| Sandra Salm | | Whoops the Rabbit and the Christmas Tree Trail | | 24 Stories for the Advent Calendar | | Illustrated by Fariba Gholizadeh |
Whoops the rabbit is unbelievably clumsy. He stumbles over every root, and every nut falling from the trees seems to hit his head. But if he wants to know something, he will not rest until he has the answer. One winter’s day some workers in the woods arouse his curiosity. They cut down lots of fir trees right in front of his burrow, and said they would become Christmas trees. The rabbit certainly knows fir trees and apple trees and nut trees, but what in all the world is a Christmas tree? Whoops will figure it out! |

| Marlene Fritsch | | Why Jonah Didn't Taste Good to the Whale | | And Other Animal Stories from the Bible | | Illustrated by Heike Treiber |
Do you know who actually rescued Moses from the Nile? And what did Daniel whisper into the lion’s ear so that it wouldn’t eat him? And why did Noah take not just a pair of doves, but a whole bunch of them, on board the ark? Animals play a small or large role in many biblical stories. |
