Religious allegories suitable for younger readers

This book initiates the amazing Journeys to Fayrah series by Bill Myers. I read it when I was considerably younger -- probably just shy of ten years ago -- but I still clearly recall the stories as some of the most *important* reading of my young life. Myers' religious allegories are a little easier for young readers to navigate; you can work them up to C.S. Lewis and John Bunyan a little later. In the meantime, if you have access to this series (which is sadly now out-of-print), definitely snatch up these books.

READ IT!

After I read this book, I wanted to read the rest of the series. This is a really enjoyable book for all ages. When two children open the portal to a magical realm known as Fayrah, they start a powerful spiritual journey with Fayranians Listro Q and Aristophenix. When you start reading, you too also begin your own journey in love, friendship and faith. I recommend this book to people of all ages and hope to read the rest of the series soon!
