It’s been a while since I read this to my kids, but it still sticks with me. There are endless Bible retellings out there, but I really appreciated the unique angle of this one. The writing style takes some getting used to, but you’ll pick up the rhythm.
Side note: We love that it’s based in Arizona. 🥰🌵🏜
And, to echo to author: May you and your child come to see the power, the grace, and the sovereignty of the God of glory in these stories of his victories!
