Rocky, Kari & margi gangland wars. <br /><br />Anyways I love these books. They give a satisfaction & encouragement to want to help others through there struggles. <br /><br />I read my first book by john benton in While incarcerated, it was Denise. I loved it. & I've kept reading. As someone who has gone through drug addiction & is now in recovery these books are very comforting & motivational to me. I want to make a difference through Christ. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157530669780468545.post-32389864821935723882024-03-14T04:38:21.477-05:002024-03-14T04:38:21.477-05:00Talking Snowman was illustrated by Lisa Kucharski....Talking Snowman was illustrated by Lisa Kucharski.

Even the later line drawings on war and post-war printings were nice, but of course not as nice as the ones on glossy paper. When I see these old internals, I feel sick about how awful the internal artwork became, especially in the 1970s.<br />Thanks again.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15473500065943436595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7157530669780468545.post-53060001552498566672024-02-20T12:52:38.501-06:002024-02-20T12:52:38.501-06:00These are lovely!
