A Good Paddling! is a collection of 30 nautical adventures written from the unique perspective of the Patty Mondore's kayak. Mondore takes readers on short excursions that provide a front-row seat to various aspects of God's marvelous creation, as they experience a spectacular sunset, visit a beaver's lodge, go for a moonlight cruise, and even take a spill or two along the way. In each chapter Mondore shares lessons about faith and hope, failure and forgiveness, work and play, sorrow and joy, and even about love.

"Love is patient, love is king..." or so we are told in the "Love Chapter." But how to apply those words practically to marriages--that's another story...or really 30 other stories. This book tells the true stories of 30 ral couples whose partnerships have stood the test of time, and how they applied the widsom of the definitive handbook on love--1 Corinthians 13--to the situations they encountered in their marriages. Some of the stories are humorous; others will bring tears--but all will inspire readers with the sorrows, jouys, laughter, and tears of couples who are wild about each other....

"River-Lations" includes 30 of Mondore's favorite articles along with several previously unpublished stories. Each chapter takes the reader on a visit to the lovely Thousand Islands area that the Native Americans once referred to as Manitoanno or "Garden of the Great Spirit."
