Author Naomi Law’s New Book “Jump, Drew, Jump!” is the Engaging Story That Follows a Mouse Named Drew Who Must Find a Way to Escape a Fire at the Carnegie Library
[ad_1]
A former educator of children with special and unique needs, author Naomi Law retired as an administrator and now volunteers in her community. She has served as a trustee and secretary of the Oak Park Public Library board and president emeritus of the Galesburg Public Library Foundation board. She is especially fond of the Oak Park Public Library and the brand-new Galesburg Public Library. Naomi is also the author of “The Adventures of Orie the Orpheum Mouse,” which has been submitted for a PenCraft Award.
Naomi writes, “‘Jump, Drew, Jump!’ takes place on the evening of May 9, 1958. That was when the beautiful and magnificent Carnegie Library burned. The Carnegie was one of the libraries made possible by a donation from philanthropist Andrew Carnegie. This library was built in the midwestern town of Galesburg, Illinois. It was a favorite place for people, mice, and one very popular cat. Unfortunately, the building caught on fire. Everyone escaped the roaring fire with the exception of one tiny mouse. This is the story of his daring escape from the burning building. It is also a reminder of the value of libraries and their impact on a community. Photos from the Galesburg Public Library Archives contribute to making this book a keepsake for historians, children, and adults who love to share memories. ‘Jump, Drew, Jump!’ is in recognition of the 2024 opening of the newly built Galesburg Public Library.”
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Naomi Law’s new book will take readers on a thrilling journey as they are transported back in time to experience the burning of the Carnegie Library. With vibrant artwork to help bring Law’s tale to life, “Jump, Drew, Jump!” will excite readers of all ages and leave them spellbound right up until the thrilling conclusion, all while learning about plans to reopen the historic sight of knowledge.

Rev. Clarence Yordy, a 95-year-old Korean War veteran and former pastor, has published a new collection of sermons titled "In Times Like These, Be Very Sure," through Christian Faith Publishing.
The book gathers sermons described by its publisher as addressing faith, perseverance, healing and purpose, rooted in Scripture and shaped by what the announcement calls real-life experience. According to the publisher’s description, the collection is meant to offer readers a steady voice amid noise and uncertainty, inviting them to pause and reconnect with their faith in the course of daily life.
Yordy brings a long personal history to the material. He served in the Korean War, spent years in pastoral ministry, and raised seven children, with grandchildren and great-grandchildren following. "I wanted to share the lessons I’ve learned across a lifetime of ministry," Yordy said in the announcement. "In times like these, we need anchors of truth that hold steady regardless of the storms around us. My prayer is that these messages help others find that unwavering foundation in Christ."
The publisher describes the sermons as addressing both practical and spiritual questions — encouragement for difficult seasons, Yordy says, alongside what the publisher frames as deeper understanding of what it means to live out faith with conviction.
"In Times Like These, Be Very Sure" is available through Christian Faith Publishing’s website, as well as at bookstores and through major online retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Apple Books and Google Play.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees the real interest here in the author himself — a 95-year-old minister and veteran putting a lifetime of ministry into print is itself a notable milestone, regardless of how the book performs.

Author Nancy Chance has released "Ancient History of Man, the Fallen Angels, and Religions," a book examining humanity’s earliest history through the lens of biblical and ancient texts, published through Christian Faith Publishing.
The book draws on the Holy Bible and the Book of Enoch, along with what the announcement describes as extensive research across scientific, historical, and journalistic sources. Its narrative opens with what Chance characterizes as creation’s original state of perfection, then moves to the descent of fallen angels to Earth and the disruption that followed. The Book of Enoch, an ancient Jewish religious text not included in most biblical canons, has long been a touchstone for writers and theologians interested in the fallen angels narrative referenced briefly in Genesis, and Chance’s book builds its account around that same source material alongside scripture.
Chance came to this project after a career in nursing. The author started her creative pursuits with teenage poetry, progressed through short stories and screenplays, and after leaving nursing pursued this theological work. This new book follows an earlier, shorter work, "One God and the Fallen Angels," and the publisher describes it as an expanded treatment of the same research and themes.
In a statement, Chance explained her motivation: "I felt compelled to share this narrative because it illuminates not only the struggle between light and darkness, but God’s constant love for His creation." "Through extensive research and biblical foundation, I hope readers will come to know Him intimately and understand their place in this epic narrative."
The publisher positions the book as a resource for readers interested in biblical and historical perspectives on the origins of human civilization and its relationship to the divine. It’s available through Christian Faith Publishing’s website, as well as Amazon, Apple iTunes, Google Play, and Barnes and Noble.
Studio CarryOnHarry will be watching to see whether this expanded volume reaches a wider readership than Chance’s earlier book on the same subject, or whether it mainly serves the audience already familiar with her work.
