5/4- A present for Mom by Vivian French
Mother's Day looms and Stanley the little kitten must find his mother the perfect present. After the flowers he finds lose their petals and the mud cake he makes slips into a mud slide, Stanley goes to bed worried he won't find the right gift. His oldest sister gives him some sage advice, and Stanley learns to give a gift from his heart.

5/11- Whatever Wanda Wanted by Jude Wisdom
Wanda gets everything she wants-toys, kittens, clothes, and more. Indeed, the only thing Wanda doesn't have is friends, thanks to her greedy and spoiled ways. In this fantastic, what-would-happen-if tale, Wanda is whisked away to her own worst nightmare-a desert island with no toys and no TV. But much to her own surprise Wanda does survive, and it's her mom and dad she misses the most.

Casting the First Stone by Kimberla Lawson Roby
CASTING THE FIRST STONE listens in on the heart of a woman torn between loving who her husband was and hating who he has become. Roby weaves a fast-paced story about faith's challenges in a world made up of material desires and other physical temptations. Taken right from the headlines, Roby's cautionary tale looks at the other side of church politics and the emotional toll it takes.
