Intimate and thought-provoking, with evocative illustrations.
Publishers Weekly
The author brilliantly keeps the drama of the story, whilst using contemporary accessible language for Key Stage 2 or 3 children. The stories could be read out in class or given to children to read independently. The parables and miracles stories are beautiful illustrated by Jackie Morris. Walking on Water and Lost and Found are beautiful set of books as a gift, to keep at home or use at school.
