A novel of true hope and redemption,...

....set believably in Galilee, brilliantly contrasts prejudice and hate with Christ's message of love.

Love the book, but pronunciations are a little confusing

The story is amazing and I LOVE that it is Christian friendly! Although the pronunciations made are a little different and slightly annoying. They pronounce the name Joel as “Yoel” and it really throws me off. But other than that it is very good!

Nostalgia

I was so grateful to see this book on audible I'm looking forward to the day I can see it in a movie or a play or something my uncle used to read this to his children and I remember hearing some of it if not all of it when I was pretty young the name stuck with me for the last 30 years or so. thank you.

The best book

I had to read this book for a school project and I despised the idea of even touching the book. The when I listened to it and finished the book everything changed just like it did in Daniel.

The best book!
