When you rise from your bed, how many minutes does it take before you truly shine? Oh, dear. That long. Might I have just two of those precious minutes each morning? Two minutes to whisper a gentle word of encouragement, to brush a feather across your funny bone, to prove how beautiful and valuable you are to God? Two minutes. No calories, no squat thrusts, I promise. Rise, sister mine. And shine.

"While Shepherds Washed Their Flocks" is a delightful collection of kid-size quotable quotes gathered from parents, grandparents, teachers, and neighbors around the country. Like all children, the ones quoted here are honest (sometimes painfully so), verbally courageous (or is that outrageous), wildly imaginative, and very funny indeed. Humorist Liz Curtis Higgs, author of ten books of humor and encouragement for both adults and children, includes stories form her own heart (and funny bone), colorfully illustrated with the whimsical artistry of Dennis Hill. Together they offer a fresh look at the world through the eyes of a child.

This collection offers readers loving insights and wisdom--all centering on the prime of life. Contributors to this volume include Erma Bombeck, Ruth Stafford Peale, Tom Landry, Florence Littauer, Roy Rogers and Max Lucado.
