Both content and photographs address the critical issues foster children face while at the same time bringing hope that they can survive their adversity. This resource would be invaluable for foster parents as well as those in the helping profession who work with foster care children. William Steele, MSW, PsyD, Director of The National Institute for Trauma and Loss in Children .As a therapist who works with children in foster and adoptive homes, this book will be indispensable in the therapy office. Children will enjoy hearing about Bandit's adventures, identify with his imperfections, and be able to absorb the valuable lessons about love and acceptance. Jean Cook, M ED., LPCC .I found it delightful in every aspect. As a school psychologist, I was concerned that our best knowledge about the process of foster parenting be presented in an understandable, yetengaging manner. I was quickly reassured for I found that Mrs. Ulch was able to present mature and complex ideas in a manner easily grasped by the younger reader. Douglas Felt, M.A., Licensed School Psychologist It has been my pleasure to review Love, Bandit by Virginia Ulch. I was very impressed with this literary piece for children. In her book, Mrs. Ulch has addressed a subject many young people have questions and concerns about. She has done so with a delightful story that will undoubtedly appeal to her intended audience.Bandit becomes nearly human because of the unique poses and expressive pictures.

Bernhard Lang, known for his contributions over several decades to biblical anthropology, offers in this volume a selection of essays on the life and literature of the ancient Hebrews. The subjects range from the Hebrew God, the world-view of the Bible, and the formation of the scriptural canon, to peasant poverty, women's work, the good life, and prophetic street theatre. The stories of Joseph, Samson, and the expulsion from Paradise are analysed, and in a departure from the Old Testament, the priestly origins of the Eucharist are considered. Insight into the Hebrew mentality is facilitated by the arrangement of the essays, reflecting the three strata of the ancient society: the peasants, with their common concerns of fertility and happiness; warriors, their martial pursuits, and the divine Lord of War; and the wise - prophets, priests, and sages.
