Download or read book Sarah Lee and a Mule Named Maybe written by Heather Grovet and published by Review and Herald Pub Assoc. This book was released on 2003 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Please God, I whispered. Not another moose. I couldn't stand another moose. I reached forward to pull on Auntie Teresa's coat, but it was too late. The growl erupted into an enormous roar. I glimpsed something dark racing down the path straight toward us. It threw itself into the air and banged into my chest, knocking me to my knees. I let out a horrible scream. Maybe is a big gray, mule who wins races and Sarah Lee is a big-and-tall 12-year-old who's not happy with her size. Her family is headed for the Canadian Rockies for a trail ride. She prays: Dear Jesus, please keep us safe tomorrow. I don't want to be chased by a cougar or a bear. And Jesus, please make me a different person--someone who isn't fat. Amen. When Maybe and Sheba, Mom's snow-white Arabian horse, are spooked by a crash in the underbrush, they disappear, leaving Sarah and Mom stranded in the woods. Now what? God, please take care of Maybe, prays Sarah. As they hit the dusty trail, Sarah Lee learns a few things about mules. And prayer. And self-esteem. And why God lets bad things happen. And how much she has to be thankful for.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mark has no special talents. He thinks. Except talking. His best friend in Calgary had a nickname for him: Marvelous Mark Olsen and the Mighty Moving Mouth! That was then. At his old school he was the life of the party; now he's friendless. His parents are busy; his baby brother, Ryan, is a pest; and Grandpa Olsen, who used to be nice, has become an old grump ever since he lost the ability to walk. Life is terrible. Then Mark meets Jet, one not-so-swift cow dog who growls when he's happy. He's foolish. Daft, says Mr. McGinness, the cattle rancher. Rather play than work. He spends all his time chasing birds. About the only thing he likes better than birds is people. He'll never amount to anything much. I need this dog, Mark told his dad. Life gets better. Then Jet has a close encounter with a tractor. Dear God, don't let that be my dog. Please. Would Jet lose a leg? What good is a three-legged dog? In the end Mark discovers that if he can love a worthless, good-for-nothing dog, well, maybe God can love a boy who talks too much.
