Good, very different from her book "Thorn in My Heart" which I've also read and enjoyed.

More of a quick "quote book" than actual interesting reading.

Another good Kingsbury novel, however, I found it a little slow at the beginning. Maybe it was just me, but it took me a while to get into it.

I especially appreciate how the author explains the rationale behind why she suggests certain games, and the learning curve of a young child. I love playing these games with my kids, and they beg me to play them. They think we are having SO MUCH FUN and I'm overjoyed that we are playing together and secretly they are exercising their math skills!!

This is an incredibly moving book. You may be skeptical about the work of our country's military but after reading this book, you will be grateful for the dedication of men and women who protect our country. I highly recommend this book.

Good, quick read. Seemed a little less intense than some of Kingsbury's other books.

From the book's cover:
With gusto and a refreshing earthiness, Jan Wahl has written "Runaway Jonah," "Captain Noah," "Little Joseph," "Singing David," and "Good Daniel," new versions of his favorite Old Testament stories. From the time Mr. Wahl first heard these tales, he began to tell and retell them to himself, so that gradually the characters came alive in his mind; their troubles and joys took on vitality and immediacy. The stories are filled with vibrant details that may now be shared with young readers, and adults as well.
Uri Shulevitz' full-page illustrations -- some gay and rollicking, others dramatic -- are the perfect complement to one of the most joyous and unusual books of Bible stories ever to appear.

This was an amazing book. I couldn't put it down and I definitely needed the tissue box. This writer is amazing!

Good Book! I loved that it was set in Coronado (near San Diego). An easy and not overly emotional read. One or two sections or too much military discussion but it was worth it!
