The Tree of Ecstasy & Unbearable Sadness is an allegorical story of a boy's experience of psychosis, with mental illness represented as a fantastical tree whose flowers are ecstasy and whose fruit is unbearable sadness. Stunning drawings and paintings lead the reader through the boy's early discovery of his strangeness, his surrender to the disease (an all-consuming tree), the ensuing psychotic journey, and eventual self-acceptance. The recording of a full orchestral score composed by the author-illustrator will accompany the book, and an international tour is planned.

Great Resource
We love these books! Our church gives them to upper primary kids who are being baptised or graduating to Youth Group. Written in a clear, engaging style. Faithful answers and explanation of the Christian message.

Fabulous Gift!
We just love this book! Superb for the coffee-table, so interesting to pick up and flick through. But also quite detailed! Captivating images, pictorial graphs, statistics etc. all about the Bible, helping one to grow in understanding and curiosity. We have bought more than 5 copies already for gifts for Christian relatives, friends & Kids Church leaders!
The Infographic Bible

A great resource for adults and kids
I bought this book thinking it would benefit my child, however I received an education in it too. Learnt so much about key and brave Christians across history, as I didn't know many of the people listed in it. Would recommend.
Everyone a Child Should Know

This is a must read.
This book is very encouraging, sharing how God is working in the Middle east, growing His Kingdom . It is also very challenging to Christian women( and men too, I am sure) in the relative comfort of the West, as to our degree of passion, love and concern for our unsaved friends and neighbours.
