Twig looked around.

It glinted in the mud and sand where water had eroded the riverbank.It was perfect. It seemed to glow, smooth and flawless.

In the Hill, everyone studies a craft and becomes a Master's apprentice, but first you have to be good at something.Twig tries very hard in all his classes, but his imagination wanders to his favorite books or the delicious mayapples growing beyond the scavenge yard . . . and then he loses his focus.Unsure he'll ever amount to anything, Twig sets out on a journey to discover himself. However, instead of finding answers, he stumbles upon a strangely colored globe that contains a curious secret.Protecting it is all Twig wants to do. But when he learns that his secret might hurt others, he's forced to make a choice between his place in the world and the feelings in his heart.The first in a duology, Brambleheart is beloved illustrator and author Henry Cole's beautiful story about nature, imagination, and how love is the greatest thing we build. ?Twig is what all heroes?large and small?should be: charming, courageous, and kind.

On the Bondage of the Will was Martin Luther''s reply to Desiderius Erasmus'' work "On Free Will," which had appeared in 1524 as Erasmus'' first public attack on Luther after Erasmus had been wary about the methods of Luther for many years. At issue was whether human beings, after the Fall of Man, are free to choose good or evil. Erasmus had asserted that all humans possessed free will and that the doctrine of predestination was not in accord with the teachings contained in the Bible. Luther''s response was to reason that sin incapacitates human beings from working out their own salvation, and that they are completely incapable of bringing themselves to God. The debate between Luther and Erasmus is one of the earliest of the Reformation over the issue of free will and predestination.
