Don’t Wait Too Long!
It’s been said that Christmas is for children: the sparkle, the smells, the songs, the squeals of delight when magically wrapped presents suddenly appear beneath the tree with our name on them. But at what point in a child’s life does the giving of those gifts suddenly become more important than receiving them? When making someone else smile outweighs our own “gimme-gimme, ” to transition into the wide-eyed anticipation of seeing the joy on a loved one’s face when they unwrap a carefully planned surprise from us? This is the story of A Transistor Christmas, a timeless tribute to the fact that everyone is a child on Christmas morning and testament to how it is truly more blessed to give than to receive.
Description
- Donn T.This Bink and Blinky book presents the biblical story of Joseph delightfully retold with beast-fable observers. Highly recommended. - 10/06/2019read moreread lessmama o.We loved Bink and Slinky's Ark Adventure, so we were excited to hear about the latest adventure for the snails. The Pyramid Adventure didn't disappoint. The rhymes were catchy, as usual, and the accurate storytelling made the biblical story come alive. I love how God leaves the snails little notes, and so in turn, they leave slimy notes for Joseph. What a testament to how the body of Christ can be God's voice. The little notes of scripture and teaching points at the back of the book were helpful and would be a great resource for caregivers reading to young children. I also appreciated the 'nod' to the first book when the snails and camel recognized each other.Why not a 5 star? The illustrations. I was sad to see Bink and Slinky and the general feel/look of the illustrations so different from the first book, Bink & Slinky's Ark Adventure. And I was also disappointed to see a cast of mostly white characters on the pages instead of characters who might have fit the actual racial make-up of the Israelites and Egyptians of the day. - 10/08/2019read moreread lessMelinda LibyThese are beautiful children’s book that will be a favorite to be shared over and over! - 10/08/2019read moreread less

- Amazon C.The GOOD-its a great book!! Love the author’s unique and fun style of storytelling, the vibrant illustrations, and added bible lessons at the end of the book.The BAD-this book wasn’t around when my kids were young!! - 10/08/2019read moreread lessSherry Terry LeiningerDonna’s books are from the heart—-she prays about each one and totally draws on God’s creativity within her!!
Her stories leave you spellbound!! Oh my golly, how will this end? Her books are written for “the younger set”, however you will find yourself being “drawn in”!!
You and your children will enter a whole new world of reading enjoyment as you read each book Donna creates!! - 10/02/2019read moreread lessW. T.I’ve read the story of Joseph in Genesis many times but never thought of it from the perspective of two snails named Bink and Slinky until I read BINK AND SLINKY’S PYRAMID ADVENTURE. The well-crafted story combines rhyming verse which is fun for parents to read with Scripture and sound lessons and insights for every child (and their parent).The story moves along at a fast clip which is fun to read—and fun to read over and over (a necessity for a children’s book). The creative verse is combined with interesting illustrations from Kalpart. Woven into the text are seven life lessons which are explained in child-geared language in the final pages. There is a lot of Biblical wisdom and insight packed into these pages. I highly recommend BINK AND SLINKY’S PYRAMID ADVENTURE.W. Terry Whalin is an editor and the author of more than 60 books including his latest Billy Graham: A Biography of America's Greatest Evangelist. - 10/12/2019read moreread less - SusanWhat could be betterthan a friendly snailto tell Bible tales?TWO pink and blue snailswith such slimy trails! - 10/06/2019read moreread lessTina S.I read this book before church this morning, i cannot wait to be able to read to my grandchildren , they are gonna love this as much as i did - 10/06/2019read moreread lessAmazon C.My girls love the adventures of Bink and Slinky!!

- Amazon C.My grandchildren like her books and it helps them understand the Bible stories better - 10/10/2019read moreread lessMarc HammanMy wife and I sat in bed last night and read a book together about two slimy snails. I thought, "How can God use a couple of imaginary snails?" Still thinking, "I guess if God can use a pickle and a tomato I suppose He can use a couple of snails named Bink and Slinky." And that He does! Bink and Slinky's Pyramid Adventure is one of the best children's books I've ever read. In form it reminds me of "Green Eggs & Ham" as the rhymes are very clever and intriguing. It's amazing how author Donna Frisinger weaves life's lessons and biblical principles throughout the story without losing any interest in the story itself. It all just fits. The pictures are large and colorful which enhance this inspired, wonderful book for children. - 10/07/2019read moreread lessW.

- Brian F.Bink and Slinky’s Christmas Adventure…
….Why wasn't this around when I was a kid??
What a fresh, charming perspective from which to tell the story of Christ's birth! Donna's poetic style is immediately mesmerizing, and you'll find yourself wanting to read it in character voices (you know you want to 😛 )
I quickly found myself gleefully lost in the Life Lessons following the story, where Donna brings fun and perhaps lesser known Biblical facts to light. LOADS of fun to read!
This must have book, and it's entire series, are destined to become generational classics. - 12/11/2019read moreread lessAmazon C.The boys loved the first Bink and Slinky’s book where they go to the Ark so they were excited to see the snails again in a new adventure.

- Mary W.The story line is Bible based and the lessons learned and shared by these 2 traveling snails are fun to read and will keep the attention of little listeners as well as those able to read the story on their own. The illustrations and colors used are bright and fun and the pages are filled with background artwork so you can do search and see with the littlest of listeners.

“Rocking Around the Christmas Tree” rang out loud and proud through the ruby red gizmo I balanced in the palm of my hand for the first time that cold December day ….”
Tucked away in Small-Town, America, the turbulent years of the 60’s proved to be a magical time to grow up for author Donna Austgen Frisinger who, thanks to a first-time babysitting job, earned the money to buy her mother the ground-breaking 1960’s transistor radio, no bigger than a deck of cards.
From the rock ‘n’ roll thrills of “American Bandstand” to the hide-your-eyes chills of “Shock Theater,” complimented by the beautiful acrylics of award-winning illustrator Vicki Guess, what Donna learned that Christmas season changed her life forever, and is a story that will touch your heart to reflect upon your own childhood transitions when anything and everything seemed possible.
