Unison Parenting
Author: Cecil Taylor
Genre: Christian Family and Parenting
Release Date: September 17, 2024
Unison Parenting combines proven parenting techniques in a Christian context with a unique foundation of unison parenting strategies designed to identify and avoid pitfalls that disrupt parents from staying on the same page.
The term “unison parenting” comes from music; singing in unison is when all voices sing the same note at the same time in order to emphasize the text. Similarly, to emphasize the message that parents want to send, they need to parent in unison.
From Cecil’s personal parenting experience and the experience of families with which he has been involved, parents will learn how to proactively, intentionally adopt and execute strategies that balance a loving nature with firm boundaries for their child. This balance creates a warm, sure environment where the child and parent can eventually collaborate to bring the child to full, responsible adulthood.
Designed for parents of school-age children who may reside in both traditional and non-traditional family structures, the first half of the book lays out parenting fundamentals for all ages. The second half focuses on the teen years and how to manage the child’s growing need for independence by allowing for incremental decision-making that gradually builds trust.
Unison Parenting has been hailed as a comprehensive parenting guide that takes the child through ages and stages into mature adulthood.

Wonderfully, Marvelously Brown
Author: Xochitl Dixon
Genre: Christian Children’s Book
Release Date: October 1, 2024
A joyously affirming rhyming picture book that follows a young boy on an adventure to find and celebrate all shades of brown—including you and me!—from the author of Different Like Me and What Color Is God’s Love?
Everywhere that I go
I’m searching to see
something wonderfully, marvelously
brown—just like me!
From new school desks to freckles and moles, from fresh pastries to cedar canoes, brown is everywhere around us. It’s a color that describes the giant California redwoods and the Grand Canyon walls, busy beavers building dams and great horned owls hoo-hooing.
Illustrated by Pura Belpré Honor Award artist Sara Palacios, Wonderfully, Marvelously Brown takes kids on a tour of the U.S. to seek and find all the brilliant and beautiful shades of brown—from ivory to ebony—that God used in creation, including humans! Through the rhythmic text and repeating refrain, children of all races, ages, and abilities will be encouraged to love the skin they’re in as they observe how it’s reflected in their communities and the world around them.
