When the Well Runs Dry: Prayer Beyond the Beginnings by Thomas Green, SJ (B2015, 4 volumes): Jesuit spiritual director Thomas Green, S.J., synthesizes the spiritual counsel of classic Christian writers for a new generation thirsty for God. In this proven and popular roadmap for those digging deeper into the mystery of prayer, he skillfully coaxes readers to re-examine their perspectives on prayer. Prayer, he teaches, has less to do with what they do or know, and more to do with what God does in them. Also available in Talking Book, click here for a preview.

Hello, Goodbye, I Love You: The Story of Aloha, A Guide Dog for the Blind by Pamela Bauer Mueller with foreword by Michael Hingson (B2016, 2 volumes): Life is not easy for twelve-year-old Diego Escobár. It was wonderful raising Aloha from puppyhood to eighteen months, but now he must return her to the guide dog school for her formal training. Diego always knew that Aloha was on loan to him, but letting her go is proving to be the hardest challenge of his young life. In this tender, inspirational tale, based on the true-life story of Aloha, Diego discovers that the sweet and sad in life are often interwoven. The unconditional love and trust between Aloha and Diego will enable her to become the dog she was bred to be. In giving her up, Diego gains unexpected rewards.

Dilexit Nos by Pope Francis (B7460): Pope Francis has released his fourth enciclical, Dilexit Nos (He Loved Us), focused on the human and divine love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ. This document arises from the need for a world, amidst wars and imbalances, to recover "what is most important: the heart." The enciclical is being published during the celebrations for the 350th anniversary of the apparition of Jesus to Saint Margaret Mary Alacoque, on the eve of the Jubilee and in the final phase of the 2021-2024 Synod.
