The Dreamer

By Jenny Marcelene

Description:

Ten-year-old Jason is unsure if God is still at work around the world. That is, until he and his younger brother, Fred, discover a board game that transports them to countries across the globe. But one mistake could mean being stuck in a country with no way home.

In The Dreamer, Jason and Fred must fulfill a strange mission to deliver a holy book to a dreamer in Afghanistan. If only the brothers knew who. Can they lose the mysterious person following them and figure out who needs the book before time runs out? Find out in this first book in Jenny Marcelene's To the Ends series.

Book Takeaway:

God's view always has the full picture. Families can join in God's global plan through prayer. Sometimes God works in unique ways to draw Afghans to himself.

Why the author wrote this book:

I started writing the stories and resources I wished existed for my own kids, but couldn't find. I wanted to connect my kids to how God is drawing people from every nation to himself and ways they could join through prayer in this global work in kid-friendly ways.

When kids are introduced to people in different countries through fiction, it can foster a deeper desire to pray for those around the globe because we met characters on the pages of a good book that cracked the door open into their world.
