If you have ever wanted to see and feel the things Jesus did before he even met any of the disciples, this is the book for you. This book makes you feel like you've watched him grow up right next door. I would tell anyone wanting a closer more personal look at the life of Jesus Christ to read this book. Though fiction I believe she captured the very essence of what life was like for Jesus. This is one of my all time favorite books.
