Sherrill Schlimpert knew the value of "bibliotherapy" long before she knew the term. Knowing how a good book can help children try on emotions, character traits and values, she also knows how books can take a child to places and experience feelings they might not have yet experienced in their young lives. As a Sunday school teacher, a facilitator of many Bible studies and retreats, a life coach for Life Purpose Coaching Centers, Intl., she also knows how only God has the true answers for life that self-help books can only touch. She offers these "Wise Words for the Whys of Life" as a sequel to the poems that she is convinced God gave her to keep her awake in the many miles she traveled as a reading coach to schools and eventually published in her book of devotional poetry, Cream for Your Coffee.
