Three of these books I've actually already finished reading, so technically they aren't on my nightstand right now. But, all four of them have been part of my night-time reading ritual during the month of January. Two of them (Sheep and My Name is Sally Little Song) are nominees for the 2008 Kentucky Bluegrass Award. Island of the Blue Dolphins was one of Rick's favorite books as a child. He's been trying to get me to read it for 17 years! Simple Church is a great research book about the differences between simple and complex churches. I think much of the research and insights can be applied to schools, too.
I highly recommend all 4 titles.
