Add a CommentWhat a great book. There are few books that I can find that entertain the imagination of the 7- 11 year old silly boy. And I have two of them at home. They loved this story because it was right out there, and had a great moral. Jenn Kelly is renown for writing stories that have multiple meanings. I have been lucky enough to read some of her sories that were published in the Lakehead University paper back in the 90's.
I particularly enjoyed reading this story to my kids because it helps the reader ,or the listener, ponder purpose. And consider God's role in each of our lives. But from a seriously warped perspective, she made it fun. Adventure, elves, action, jokes and ridiculousness what more could you ask for? especially for that kid that isnn't mature enough yet for pre teen, but much more mature than children's books.
