Customer Reviews

Excellent bible-based historical fiction for young readers!

I've used this book many times in teaching Children's Church and at a Christian School. Kids get very emotionally involved in the story and learn so much about the historical period. When Stephen is stoned, the kids often cry out in protest and actually are in tears! Brings the Bible to life for them. Time well spent for home-schooling families. We are very upset to be having trouble getting our hands on the other books of the series!
