Sir Beaver Finds the Missing Peace (Fruit Fables) by Shelleen Weaver (Book 3)

If you are "that mom" who hides pureed kale in your children's chocolate smoothies, or if the idea, "Aesop meets Bob and Larry" gives you a thrill, then this series is for you! Fruit Fables is a collection of nine children’s stories that uses the adventures of talking animals to illustrate the godly character traits the Apostle Paul talks about in Galatians, known as the fruit of the Spirit.

In book three, Sir Beaver is an industrious workaholic whose frantic hustle leaves no time for rest or play until a toothache stops him in his tracks. Unable to saw, he reluctantly attends a harvest party where fun with friends and advice from Field Mouse teaches him the wisdom of balance. In the end, he learns that peace comes from trusting his Maker.

"Shelleen’s writing is a banquet of spiritual truth in a playfully rich recipe of rhythms and words. Your child will choose this book from the shelf, climb onto your lap, and snuggle in for times of captivating tales of truth in action. It’s fruitful, and it’s FUN! Fruit Fables brought smiles to a grown-up like me and will positively delight the young!" ~Jeff Bender, Sight & Sound Theater Producing Group Writer/Director/Producer
