"Well, this is it. Caesar had his Rubicon. What do Bible college presidents have? A Rubik's Cube?"

Tom Collins, mild-mannered president of a dwindling southern Bible college, becomes a target when a drunk prankster swaps his campus's American flag with the Christian one, and Dr. Tom refuses to "fix" the situation. Big media, exuberant students, petty enemies, and pretty secretaries all play a part in this happy-go-lucky satire for the twenty-first century.

Readers of PG Wodehouse's Leave It to Psmith and Christopher Buckley's Thank You for Smoking will appreciate this lighthearted new satirical novel from Douglas Wilson, author of the award-winning Evangellyfish (Best Fiction of 2013, Christianity Today).

"Rourke spun around and stomped out the door. Bradford followed him out. "Don't you agree? We really need to do our part to reduce this epidemic of illicit banging in the evangelical world."

Chad Lester's kingdom is found in the Midwest. His voice crawls over the airwaves, his books are read by millions (before he reads them), and thousands ride the escalators into the sanctuary every Sunday. And Saturday. And Wednesday, too. He is the head pastor of Camel Creek—a CEO of Soul. And souls come cheap, so he has no overhead.

When Lester is (falsely) accused of molesting a young male counselee, his universe begins to crumble. He is a sexual predator, yes. But strictly straight (and deeply offended that anyone would suggest otherwise). Detectives, reporters, assistant pastors, and old lovers and pay-offs all come out to play.

John Mitchell is also a pastor, but he has no kingdom to speak of—only smalltime choir feuds. He is thrilled at the great man's fall, but his joy quickly fades when the imploding Lester calls him—and a lover or two—for help. How low can grace go? Whores, thieves, and junkies, sure. But pastors?

It's election season—America's most lucrative sport—and there are no rules.

When climate scientist Dr. Helen Gardner accidentally reads an email from the International Task Force on Climate Change which proves that global warming is a lucrative scam, she's shocked and horrified.

But that's nothing compared to how she feels the next day when her boss (the head of the Task Force) tries to have her killed.

Helen goes into hiding with the help of her neighbor, a "fundy" Bible college professor named Cody, and an anti-eco-activist lumberjack-writer.

But Helen's scandal isn't the only headline floating to the surface: the Democrat presidential candidate gets career-changing news; his running mate hits rock bottom after years of infidelity; the current Republican VP's past sins won't stay hidden forever.

And Cody is about to uncover some dirt of his own.

It was exactly as advertised. It was a gift for someone and tgey loved it!

Huge fan!

This was such a pleasant surprise, it’s the perfect book set to go along with our current reading curriculum. My son loves the books and it’s so hard to find an engaging story for beginner readers! The illustration is adorable and attention grabbing and the sticker chart is such a key component to motivating my young reader!

a truly life changing book

Awesome!
Loving it!
Thank you!
Your company is great!

Chickadee Readers: My First Stories

Great stories to add to your collection

The quality of the physical books and illustrations is top notch. I love the beginning sequence of short vowels. The scope and sequence isn't quite aligned with suggested phonics instruction order. However, these stories are a great option for students who are ready to apply a wider arrange of phonics skills.

Excellent!

My 4-year-old is already memorizing the letter sounds and loves to ask to practice them. We are excited to start reading the cute books! My only constructive feedback would be about the choices of some of the images- she was initially thrown off by fox for the letter X, and said "buh" for "R" because she thought the rabbit was "bunny." Otherwise, perfection!

The sounds that makes reading click

Amazing product. Did a reel to show how well they are teaching my 2 year old her sounds. I’m very impressed!

Such a great product

These readers are such a great addition to my classroom library. I like how they focus on different skills. Love them.

A complete set for helping young readers!

My full review and my son's unboxing will be on instagram sometime next week, but I am so pleasantly surprised by the contents of the box. So many books and a comprehensive way to learn while being entertained. Very much looking forward to utilizing this tool!

Very Impressed

I’m really impressed with these baby books. They’re engaging, colorful, and perfect for keeping my baby’s attention. A wonderful addition to our collection

Perfect First Stories for Little Ones

We’ve really enjoyed reading Chickadee Readers: My First Stories with our children. The stories are short, engaging, and written in a way that keeps their attention without being overwhelming. The illustrations are colorful and cheerful, which makes reading time fun for both kids and parents. I also appreciate that the stories introduce simple vocabulary and themes that are easy for young readers to follow. It’s been a great way to start building a love of reading at home. Highly recommend for families looking for quality early reader books!

Such a great set for budding readers!!

I have been using this with my son for a couple weeks now and it’s been a game changer. The poster and stickers to track their journey makes it super interactive and fun for kids which is huge in keeping them interested! This is a great set and would highly recommend to any one struggling or needing some extra help with teaching your kids how to read and keeping them engaged!

Amazing and Educational

These books are amazing! They are both educational and really enjoyable, keeping you curious with every page. The quality is excellent and the content is clearly well-prepared. I really loved them.

Perfect set of early readers!

Illustrations, fun stories! We really love these.

Amazing program

My daughter just started and is really engaged with this because of the quality of the pictures. She has tried other similar programs but they are older and pictures did not interest her which made her not want to try to read the book. So far she is excited and I am too.

Very Happy

We are a home school family with 4 children, and I have been teaching my children for over 12 years now. We recently switched to a classical style of teaching and have incorporated Kraken Latin 1 into the mix. I have grades 12, 10, and 7 learning Kraken Latin 1 together with surprising success (since we have no previous Latin experience). The DVD that accompanies the books is very helpful, a MUST-have. Two thumbs up!

Absolutely love this

We’ve tried other early readers, but Chickadee Readers makes it step-by-step and stress-free. The confidence it’s given my child is priceless. My child’s vocabulary has grown, and I can see her joy in reading growing too.

LOVE THEM

I got these in mail and was SOO excited to start these with my daughters right away. the quality and info in these books are amazing and will for sure help me teach them!

LOVE THESE!

My daughter loves the flash cards especially!

Great content and stories

There was a surprising amount of increasing challenge between each level. I have two new Kindergarteners and one starting 2nd grade and all three children have benefitted greatly from this book series, and each is challenged by a different level. The kids enjoy the colors of the books/illustrations. The stories are just long enough to create a motivating challenge and sense of accomplishment upon completion without being daunting/exhausting. The stories are gripping to the point that my kids often end each book with a smile on their faces at each story's conclusion. This was money well invested on my kids' futures in my opinion!

Why Chickadee Readers Stole My Heart

Chickadee Readers has truly created something special with this box set. I love that the books are organized by different levels, making it easy for children to build confidence as they grow. The design of the box is thoughtful and convenient & everything fits perfectly, and it feels like a complete package. The addition of the flashcards is such a helpful tool, and the game board makes reading feel fun and interactive by letting children check off their progress as they go.

For me, this set is a perfect addition to my daycare and also for my grandchildren at home. The books are engaging, the structure is intentional, and the extras make it stand out from any other reading set I’ve used. I absolutely love Chickadee Readers and highly recommend them for both parents and educators.

Very good for kids

My 7-year-old son reads one of these every night before bed and absolutely loves them. Such a well-written seriesI definitely recommend it!

So cute and engaging!

My kindergartener absolutely loves reading the book of the day and getting the sticker for completing the book. It’s enraging, encouraging, and gamified. He felt empowered to read independently. We absolutely LOVE this!
