Описание: Here s middle-grade nonfiction that reads like a thriller. With murder, court battles, and sensational newspaper headlines, the story of Lizzie Borden is compulsively readable and perfect for the Common Core. "Lizzie Borden took an axe, gave her mother forty whacks. When she saw what she had done, she gave her father forty-one." "" In a compelling, linear narrative, Miller takes readers along as she investigates a brutal crime: the August 4, 1892, murders of wealthy and prominent Andrew and Abby Borden. The accused? Mild-mannered and highly respected Lizzie Borden, daughter of Andrew and stepdaughter of Abby. Most of what is known about Lizzie s arrest and subsequent trial (and acquittal) comes from sensationalized newspaper reports; as Miller sorts fact from fiction, and as a legal battle gets under way, a gripping portrait of a woman and a town emerges. With inserts featuring period photos and newspaper clippings and, yes, images from the murder scene readers will devour this nonfiction book that reads like fiction. "Sure to be a hit with true crime fans everywhere." "School Library Journal," Starred"

Описание:
We desire to know our lives matter, and we live in a world that craves more, but what is more? We're bombarded with messages about what more looks like and how we can successfully live a life of being made for more. Perfection is a constant measure of success, and we manipulate plans so we feel like we are making an impact. In the end, we are empty and exhausted. Author Lauren Elizabeth Miller has lived this and felt this on a deep level. She's walked through the emptiness and exhaustion that stems from trying to be perfect and never fail. She's also felt the redemption and restoration that only God can provide. In Made for More, Miller shares her life story and the freedom and redemption she found through complete surrender to God's plan for her life. She tells how obedience matters more than any outcome and that being made for more is simply living a life that stems from God's grace. When we understand this, it changes everything.
