Summary: Riding the Magi Trail
Review: Horse lovers and Christians of all ages should love this story of a father and son, the horses in their lives, and the search for the King of the Jews. Best of all, this is just the first in a trilogy; so, readers can continue the adventure for two more books. The author is familiar with her subjects, horses and God, and it shows. A good family read for Advent and Christmas or for a new Christmas story for school librarians to share with students of all ages. Beyond the basic story are many topics for discussion with older children or children who, like Michael, have suffered loss in their lives.

Summary: A Christmas Treasure
Review: I bought this book for my children as a special treat for Advent. We read a chapter a night leading up to Christmas. The book held their attention and in a very subtle way helped them to contemplate how GOD works in their life - how they have a mission to fulfill called GOD's will and how GOD is truly All-Powerful. My children's favorite scenes were when the main characters were in sticky situations and they receive the help of the angels..I think this helped them to ponder how they are not ever alone, but surrounded by GOD's power and might.

Summary: Did you ever wonder of the Magi?
Review: I have always wondered what happened to the wisemen after they saw Jesus. Did they go back and pick up on their lives or were they forever connected to Jesus? Were they there when they crucified Jesus? Were they witnesses to His teachings? A little after reading the book, the sequel, THE MUMMY RETURNS, opened in movie theaters. The main character in the movie, as played by Brendan Fraser, discovers that he is a descendant of the Magi. He even had a special mark on his arm that only the Magi had. Weird huh? This book and then this movie, talking about the magi. Arabian Horses are amazing animals. They are deeply spiritual horses. The splendor of God is evident in these horses. If you love Arabian Horses, this is a wonderful book to read. If you need to "jump-start" your passion for Jesus, this book, will help you to do it!!!

Summary: I LOVE this book!
Review: My friend asked me to read this book, but I was reluctant, because I'm not into horses. I was pleasantly surprised by how I was drawn into the story and how it kept my interest. I'm looking forward to reading the next book in the Trilogy with great anticipation!

Summary: Prefered over the Harry Potter Books!
Review: What a wonderful book. My children and I are very excited about a book that holds our attention and keeps us on the edge of our seat for what will happen next. I, as a parent, am happy to find a book that holds our attention and is full of faith, hope and love as opposed to the witchcraft found in the Potter Books. We can't wait for Book Two! If you don't have this book, get it before the Christmas season and read it to your family. It is sure to be a classic!

Summary: Master Storyteller
Review: Wisdom of the ages has been passed down by storytellers for thousands of years from generation to generation. Jo is a master storyteller who knows how to weave a plot. She knows people, she knows horses, and she knows what she believes in. You won't want to put this book down!
