Porter, shows how orphaned child Pollyanna Whittier transforms an entire town for the better with her \"glad game\" - optimism, faith, and determination to look for the good in everything. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eYet the story is also so much more than that! If all you know of Pollyanna is the Disney film version or reading the book as a child, you may find reading it as an adult surprising. The gentle satire as Pollyanna's exuberant joy contrasts with the dutiful but joyless views of God and life held by the adults around her is aimed at grown-up church-going readers, not children. Pollyanna has so much to teach us about living a meaningful Christ-like life, growing spiritually, and experiencing deeper joy, the joy God created us to hold fast to and cherish. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIncludes the full text of the original story plus: \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ean introduction to the book;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ediscussion questions for book groups;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003esuggestions for playing Pollyanna's \"Glad Game\";\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ea detailed Bible-based devotional for each chapter, to dig deeper into the lessons in the story;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003epersonal journaling prompts for each chapter;\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ea reference list of Bible verses about joy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis paperback includes both the full text of the story and the journaling prompts, but does not include blank space for your responses.
