Congregant & Author, Scott Shinberg's New Book Release - October 4th

New Children's Book by BCRC Congregant, David Mendelsohn

Written by a congregant, David Mendelsohn, RUSH THE BLUEBIRD AND THE PAINTED BUNTING is described by readers as,"endearing, lovely, charming with positive social values." 

This children's story features a young bluebird and a rare panted bunting who become close friends.  They share some adventures together and a quest.  Most of the story occurs in Ashburn, VA. 

One parent was thrilled that her son was totally immersed in the book and brought it to school to share it with others.  Teachers recommended the book as a good class project.
