John and Joy, the Shady Lawn Twins, learn a basic Bible truth in each of the eight stories in this book. They learn that sharing brings happiness, even if it means giving up a very special doll.

What happens on the day that Mother plans to clean the attic? Can John and Joy be cheerful even when they do not feel like it? And what does the big word courteous mean?

The twins also learn about mercy, about reverence in God's house, and about how to be happy when bad things happen. When dear Aunt Ruth dies, they learn lessons about death and about our new bodies in heaven.

And then, John and Joy learn about trust. God can help in the big things, but He also cares about the little things!

These lessons, taught simply for little children, are written in interesting story form. At the end of each story is a little praise song for children to sing and memorize.
