Thanks for the note.  The books are not currently available in Spanish, and I doubt they will be, but I have no control over that; the publisher gets to make those decisions.

However, I'll forward your message to him directly -- along with a couple others I've received this year on the same topic.

Blessings on you, your family, and your very important work!

We have been rotating through the Jotham's Journey series for at least 10 years, it's a highlight of our Christmas celebration every year. I am wondering if there has ever been any thought given to having the stories translated into Spanish? We are a multi-cultural family, missionaries in Ecuador and I would so love to be able to share this series with families who are learning to love God with all their hearts. Christmas in the latin culture tends to have a different focus, how wonderful it would be to be able to share the joy of Christmas with them through your books. We are so excited to see the new story for Easter and are planning to pick that up the next time we're in the states. Thank you, Mr. Ytreeide, for using your gifts and talents to be a blessing to so many. We thank the Lord for you! -- Tracy Coupe

Thank you, Trini!

Your comment means a great deal to me.

Hello! I'm fourteen years old and I LOVE the Jotham series! Thank you for writing such wonderful stories! Can't wait to read the Lent story next Lent! Yours Truly, Trini

Someone recommended this book to me about 5 years ago, so I bought it. They gave me one rule: don't read ahead. I've kept it all this time, waiting until a year when my son would be old enough to follow the story. He is five and a half now. He is completely enthralled with the story every night. We are loving it. I'm just thrilled that there are 2 more and that they will be ready for next year's Christmas season. We are enjoying the opportunities to learn more about things from Jesus's days. This author is an amazing storyteller!

I have prayed for the the re-publication of the Jotham series. And I have prayed for the author and his family. I have prayed that he would write a similar book to help families celebrate Easter. Every year, I am disheartened to find that the Jotham series is out of print. And this year, there it is! We have told countless families about this wonderful tradition our family happened upon. This year we are buying at least 10 copies to give to families that we know will enjoy finding a new way to rediscover their faith amongst the trappings and chaos of Christmas. Our children look forward to Advent even more than they look forward to Christmas morning. I am so thankful that the books are being re-published.

Cannot wait for this book to be re-released!! I plan on buying one for our family and a few for early Christmas gifts. I've heard so many positive stories about the joy this book brings...just so excited!!

I was gifted Jotham's Journey several years ago (well, for our four kids), and then found Bartholomew and Tabitha the next two years. We are the busiest at Christmas, since my husband and I produce a Christmas Theater each year, but we always seem to find time to read these!! They are even great to repeat year after year. I have looked for them the last few years to share with others and have been so disappointed to see them out of print, but knew they HAD to come back sometime! Thank you for the ministry opportunities these books have brought, not only for my own family, but when we have shared them with others. Please keep writing! --another NNC alumnus

Thank you so much for bringing these books back into print. My family enjoyed reading Jotham's Journey last Advent, and it was our favorite activity of the season. It was a fabulous way to ready our hearts for Jesus, and to do it as a family with young children was priceless. We can't wait to get our hands on Bartholomew's Passage and Tabitha's Travels!

Great to hear you're back!! We have been praying for you and for the ministry that these books present. We have read the trilogy, and gifted several of them as well. This is one of the few places where children and teens can experience the reality of Biblical times. THANK-YOU!! Carole Holdahl, grateful reader.
