Wonderful Story

This is an amazing story!! Instead of the same Bible stories that older kids may have heard over and over this story ties those great stories into a mystery and left my older kids captivated and wanted to hear more and more. I love this series. Just good wholesome fun and clean!!!

My kid loved it!

We’ve listened twice now and each time my child makes so many Biblical connections. He requests every time we get in the car.

Held My Child’s Attention!

My 7 year old boy LOVED the book. He immediately asked to start the next book.
My 4 year old girl listened also. But was easily pulled away from the story.
