I took my time in reading and absorbing this beautiful story that celebrates God, love, the innocence of youth and the wisdom of age. It celebrates the grandeur of all living things with respect and a noble spiritual magic. It engages one's imagination to soar into the possibility of goodness and celestial intervention in all that we do, offering hope and inspiration. The children in the story were challenged and performed in admirable ways with the promise to lead by becoming strong and honorable adults. It demonstrates the existence of wickedness but re-enforces the existence of God and His warriors ready to defend and protect us. The author's view of God's magnificent love, power and majesty is so comforting and encouraging in this troubled world. BRAVO! Can't wait for the next book in the series and I hope you will seriously consider a film to follow each book. ”
