Bartholomew is prone to lying, and he just can't stop telling the truth right afterward. You see, he's fed up with being bullied by Tommy and his friends and sees, in his mind, Jesus coming to town and fixing them all up real good.
An adorable tale of Bartholomew and his good friend, Jesus.
Note: This is a funny book, but Jesus is not ridiculed. It's a fine line, but we were miraculously able to do it, while making Jesus present and relevant and alive in a child's mind. It will even give adults a chuckle, and they will want to read it for their pleasure. We hope your little one wants it read to them over and over. For the sound of the words, the images, unforgettable and unique, and for the concepts it invokes. We are all ultimately good, with occasional tugs towards the not so good, just like Bartholomew.
