In Search of the King - Paperback

by Annell Williamson (Author)

Jerusalem is under Roman rule and King Herod will stop at nothing to keep his position of power. Upon hearing that a new king will soon be born, he seeks to find and kill the child. Can a small group of animals with seemingly insurmountable differences save the newborn king? Can they find the holy child before King Herod finds him? Join this unlikely band on an adventure of a lifetime. Follow Baruch, the mongrel, through the crowded streets of Jerusalem, scurry with Timothy, the timid mouse, down the terrifying halls of Herod's palace, fly with Yonah, the dove, to the pinnacle of the temple mount, and walk with Heber, the humble donkey, on the dangerous road to Bethlehem. Stand by them as they face their worst fears. Witness their surprise as they discover something quite unexpected, something none of them ever imagined possible. Written for all ages, In Search of the King promises to warm the heart.
