From the fervid heart of a 16 year-old African poet, Drew Gachagua writes about his realizations and love sensations: That well-intentioned love can also harm him, that his kindness cannot save the world, that life will only be long if we can live it to it’s full extent, and that we are all one-of-a-kind. In his redolently composed “essence of my adolescence”, Drew touches on themes of passion, fury, child-eyed wonderment and his newfound self-love.
This 60 page collection of poems is filled with adorable illustrations, and poet’s notes are included to assist young and new readers with poetry interpretation.

My Soul to Keep by: Davis Bunn
KSh 400.00A true star in every sense of the word, Brent had arrived–more enthusiastic fans with each new movie, a host of friends among Hollywood’s elite, and more money than he could spend. He didn’t even notice the signals of the downward spiral that ended in a terrible accident…and six long years in prison.
But God finds Brent, and it is in prison he is transformed. On release, he sets himself up with a small lawn service business and volunteers his experience and acting skills with a local theatre group.
Celia had thought the inner and outer scars left by the accident were far beyond forgiveness–how could she ever find it in her to absolve Brent simply because he asks?
A Christian businessman, Bobby Dupree has a string of entrepreneurial successes behind him. Then he is challenged with another venture–one that puts him squarely in the middle of an industry totally foreign to his experience. How can he make this story into a film when he doesn’t even know where to begin?
Thus begins an odyssey bringing some very unlikely people together to do something bigger than any of them could have imagined on their own. Their endeavor pits faith and vision against unlimited money and power thrown against this new upstart company from Nowhere called Shoestring Productions.
