Please allow me to introduce you to FGC children’s picture books and audiobooks.
“For Generations to come” is a historically accurate novel based on the Knauss family tree starting in 1546 Hessen, Germany, spanning almost 500 years to the present day in the United States of America. “For Generations to come” covers ten generations of the Knauss family, trusting the Lord to direct their path and keep them and their family safe. Fleeing from religious persecution and warring enemies, they left Germania and sailed to the New World. This text was written for school children, grades 8 through 12, but all ages have quickly enjoyed it.
The 140,000-word novel is written like a Hitchcock film or an old 1930s murder mystery…you think you know “who did it” until you read the cliffhanger endings throughout the book. The storyline is like a Tom Sawyer/Nancy Drew book. It has action and tall tales for the boys and, at the same time, romance and mystery for the girl readers.

The first three books reveal the path emigrants took from Europe to the New World to become Americans. Books four through eleven focus on families during and after the American Civil War. The ending and the author’s life story are in books twelve through fourteen. They tell about the author’s time in the music business.
This American story also tells a parallel Native American story. Early European settlers were driven out of their native homeland by invaders from other countries. Then they did the same thing to the Native Americans who thought the settlers were invaders and squatters in their homeland.
