History is full of the overwhelming importance of little things. They are the hinges upon which turn doors of opportunity and destiny. Turning points in the lives of men and nations are generally the ordinary everyday and commonplace events and things of life. It was a little thing that detained the young Lincoln a minute on the streets of New Orleans where he saw a slave market. "If I ever get a chance to hit that thing, I'll hit it hard," he said--and there was a great war and four million human beings were emancipated. It was a little moment--the one in which Luther arose from his knees, after toiling painfully up the sacred stairway in Rome, saying, "The just shall live by faith!" But from that moment he walked down to a soul-enslaved people, and the Reformation began. A little child was born and laid in a manger, in a little Judean town--and the whole world swung toward the light. It is God's plan to use little things, in the creation of greatness. CONTENTS: 1.

NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER #1 New York Times bestselling author Jodi Picoult presents a probing and empathetic story about a woman caught in a moral dilemma and a courtroom drama that resonates far beyond her place in time and history into present day. Ruth has worked as a nurse in the maternity ward for over twenty years, but when Turk and Brittany Bauer are admitted to have their first child, they request that Ruth be reassigned: they are white supremacists and don't want Ruth, a black woman, to touch their baby. The hospital complies, but the baby later goes into cardiac distress when Ruth is on duty. Uncertain of her standing with her employer, she hesitates before rushing in to perform CPR. When her indecision ends in tragedy, Ruth finds herself on trial, represented by a white public defender who doesn't think they should bring the issue of race into the courtroom. As the two come to develop a truer understanding of each other's lives, each of them begin to doubt the beliefs she holds most dear.
