Publisher's summary

In this widely popular, exciting story for the advent season, listeners follow 10-year-old Jotham across Israel as he searches for his family. Though he faces thieves, robbers, and kidnappers, Jotham also encounters the wise men, shepherds, and innkeepers until at last he finds his way to the Savior born in Bethlehem.

A wonderful way to center Christmas around Jesus

Arnold Ytreeide transports you to the time of Jesus’ birth and captivates you with the thrilling story of Jotham and the journey he embarks upon that leads him to Jesus. Each chapter leaves you wanting more and ends with a thought provoking devotional that keeps the Christmas season focused on Jesus each day of Advent leading up to Christmas morning.

I love this story and it helped us stay on track by listening to it as we drive from place to place

My 8 year old was in awe to hear his Sunday school songs come to life. He related to the seriousness of the situation and how hard it would be to lose your family and feel responsible.

Wonderful story. More violence than expected.

This book came highly recommended for kids by a Christian homeschoolers group. While we did LOVE it, there was quite a bit of violence to the story that was unexpected for my younger kids. I would suggest this for kids age eight and older.

Great family advent story

Very exciting story to take a family through the advent season, may be a little violent but no more than the Bible itself.

I love this story

This reader is the best. I did not think I would find someone who read this with all the voices like I have every year. The story is the best.
