Darwin Finds FreedomBy NicoleLisa SchraderDescription:Forced to flee for his life, Darwin searches for the Free Mice from Grandfather's stories. But will they accept a scaredy-mouse like him? Book Takeaway:The King of all Creation watches over us all. Faith and love overcome fear. Why the author wrote this book:We were at a family camp in the mountains of Colorado Springs and our cabin had mice, who scampered around at night. I’m embarrassed to admit, I was afraid I’d wake up to find one crawling on me – or worse, on one of my children. I thought about CS Lewis’ brave mice in his Narnia series – Reepicheep and the mice who chewed off Aslan’s bonds. I wrote a version of Darwin Finds Freedom that week, hoping our own little mice would find another home. And more significantly, it was a way for me to look at fear and how God’s love and our concern for others, lessens its hold on us. |
