The inclusion of Jason's frog Croaker in the Easter pet parade she is planning challenges Stacy's fear of frogs.

Jason takes advantage of his parents' absence to sneak forbidden chocolates behind his babysitting grandmother's back, but a Bible verse and a talk with God help him understand the importance of good behavior.

Flickering candlelight, haunting flute music, and a Christmas tree full of angels make Eric Hagel wonder about his mysterious new neighbor.

Merry asks God to help her find her friend's missing mother.

After Merry befriends Elton, an artistically talented boy whom some of her eighth grade classmates call retarded, she must find a way to prove that he is not responsible for the damage at the farm of her Amish friend, Rachel.

When a car strikes her young Amish friend while the two of them catch fireflies, thirteen-year-old Merry hopes for healing through her Christian faith.
