Lovely Book!
Derived From Web , Apr 20, 2022
We just loved this book, we're reprinting it. It was my 8-year-old who brought it home. It is a very good story, with a moral message which keeps you guessing until the end of the story. Really nice graphics. A great book. I'm thinking of buying a couple more books to have on hand for birthday gifts.

The exact same story as Koa's Seed, but much cheaper. It's a very moving story about integrity, Pope John Paul said.

Nice story
Derived From Web , Jun 2, 2021
I bought this for my 2nd grade literature class and it's great. If you have a 2-year-old, you may want to consider a nanny. The upper range of children, from 7 to 8, does not seem to fit this book level. Overall, I'd say this is a good story.
