Book: The Two-Cent Piece Audiobook

Author: Dennis Conrad

Genre: Christian 1800s Historical Fiction

Release Date: August 2, 2023

Anne wonders what secret her three older brothers are hiding. When she finds out they joined to fight with the Union Army and would leave the next day, she gives them each one of her favorite two-cent pieces, and says, “I want you to take one of my new two-cent pieces. I learned these coins are the first with the word ‘In God We Trust.’ Then I just memorized Psalm 91:2. ‘I will say to the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: My God, in him will I trust.’”

Out of a heart of love, Ann gives six of her special coins away, hoping the message on the two-cent piece will strengthen each person’s faith.

My Thoughts on The Two-Cent Piece Audiobook

The Two-Cent Piece Audiobook is a wonderful narration of the book by the same title. We loved reading the book and have enjoyed listening.  It’s a really short listen at 15 minutes making it perfect for if you need a quick car ride listen.  It’s also great to listen to while eating lunch and then you can have a discussion when you’re done listening.  

Jenn Leigh Pengelly is the narrator and she did an amazing job in my opinion.  I hope you take the chance to listen.  My review of the book and audiobook contents is below. 

About the Book

This was a cute children’s story. I liked that it taught a bit of history while also giving a firm grasp on God and His love. A fun fact about me is that I collected pennies when I was younger. It was fun and I enjoyed it! Seeing a book for children about coin collecting was unique and I knew I was going to have to read it.

I liked that the book was set up in an easy-to-read format. The font was large and perfect for the target age range of 5-10 years old. I have two children in this age range and they both really liked the book. I have several children out of an age that also enjoyed the book. The illustrations were cute as well.

We are history lovers in our home and I loved being to add another book that taught history to children.

I have voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from Celebrate Lit. All views expressed are only my honest opinion. I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way. All opinions expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the FTC regulations.

Collecting Coins Can Change Your Life! It Did Mine…

As a child, my friends and I wanted to know everything about coins.

We learned about coins through stories: Who was on each coin? What were coins made of? How were coins made? Where were they made? Why were some more valuable than others? and How could I start collecting on my limited budget?

Coin collecting is a hobby where collectors never stop learning! For example, when I started to watch coin prices, without realizing it, I was learning basic economics.

Over the years, I kept adding to my collection. Decades passed. I attended coin conventions, read books and articles about coins, and remembered where I had found and/or acquired each coin.

One day, my wife looked at me. “Will you ever sell your coins?”

“No.”

That is when I heard God’s still small voice.

God pointed out to me that my coins had become more important than Him. Without my realizing it, my coins had become an idol.

At that time, at the top of the market, I sold my collection without regrets and used the money to pay off my home mortgage.

Now, God has given me the privilege of writing stories about coins and encouraging others to embrace a hobby that has given me a lifetime of joy.

Blessings to you and yours,

Dennis Conrad
