Barbara's Note: This story is actually an allegory of Jesus' life, death and resurrection. Some children will pick up on that quickly, but for others it will be simply a delightful fantasy. Both focuses have value. If your student enjoys this story, encourage him to read the others in the series. (Grades 5, 6, 7)
