Please keep writing!!!! I purchased the three Advent books when I was do a big order with CBD in the fall and so glad I tossed them in my cart. My older three children (9/7/4) are really enjoying Tabitha's adventure. We are cramming the entire Advent story into a week because I didn't realize how to 'do it right.' Somehow, I don't think we'll be able to wait until next year to read the other tales. I hope the word will continue to spread about these great books. I just 'liked' you guys on Facebook. Hopefully, that will help a little... :)

Hi - just wanted to say thanks for the great Advent adventure story of Jotham. My children (boy 9, girl 5) loved it! They spotted Tabitha's Travels at Hackman's (our favorite Bible bookstore) and can hardly wait until next Advent. Saw your reply "...an Easter story following Jotham's son 30 years later will be out in 2011." My children will be thrilled! Thanks & blessings to you!

Thanks for the note.  My wife and I are also alone now...a strange and wonderful change.  It's hard to believe that "Jotham" is almost 15 years old (the book, not the boy)!

We found Jotham's Journey when our children were both young. We had been searching for something to read besides the little books and Bible readings we had done for a number of years. Something that would be more like an adventure. We were homeschooling then, and my wife had a plethora of resources. When she read about Jotham's Journey, we jumped at ordering the book. The kids as well as my wife and I were captivated by the daily readings and devotional thoughts. When we saw that there was a sequel, we ordered Bartholomew's Passage and devoured that one the next year. We ordered two more sets of books, one for each child, and this Advent season, gave one set to our daughter and son in law. To my surprise, I opened Jotham's Journey and found that I had signed the inside cover in Christmas of 1999! Now that we are home alone, we read Jotham's Journey every day, look forward to Bartholomew's Passage in 2011!

In 2005, our family was enduring a very long and difficult season with the health of our son. A family in our church gave us the trio of Advent books. They are amazing! Our son, who is almost 11 now could nearly not wait for each new day of the story to be told. He was so excited about our Advent tradition! The story of Christ nearly lept off the page for all of us. We were so sad to learn that they were out of print. We were thrilled to find out recently that they are back in print. I am not buying a copy for all of our children to some day share with their own children. Bless you for your inspired writing! It has changed our Christmas season!

Last year I fell into Jothams Jorney as I was searching for something new to use for advent. What a blessing! I was thrilled after Christmas when I found Bartholomews Passage to use this Advent. This has been a rich addition to our Advent celebration. The kids actually ask if we can do our Advent lesson. What a wonderful way to concentrate the season on the birth of Christ instead of all the other stuff our culture incourages. I am looking forward, anxously and expectantly for Tabbitha's adventure to become a part of next year's celebration. I will watch closely for it's appearance. Thank you for your creative insight.

Thanks so much for that great idea! My three children love the books and I know will want to continue the tradition when they have families of their own. I'm going to buy the set for each of them and keep forr the first christmas they have their "own" family!

Sorry, there won't be any more Advent books in this series.  However, an Easter story following Jotham's son 30 years later will be out in 2011.

I have all three books, but I was really hoping that there would be more coming in the future. Any possibility of that happening? We read the books out loud as a family. My children have enjoyed following Jotham, Bartholomew and Tabitha's adventures (we are currently reading Jotham again for the third time). Even though my boys are teens now, they still look forward to advent so we can read the stories of characters who have become family friends over the years. Thanks for many, many evenings of family time filled with adventure, faith, discussion, and new knowledge (we catch something new in the books each time we read them). Just tonight, we realized that the "library" in the Jotham book referred to the Dead Sea scrolls. We enjoy the writing style and would love to see more Christmas adventure stories.

I have been waiting for several years for Tabitha's Travel's to come back again! I purchased Jotham's Journey, and then Batholemew's Passage, quite a few years ago, and when I went to get Tabitha the next year, it was no longer available. Needless to say, my other two books are quite "worn out" by now, so I am really looking forward to seeing Tabby arrive!

We managed to pick up Jotham and Tabitha a couple of years ago (and missed Bartholomew @ the time). Tabitha's story is an excellent blending of all sorts of emotions and a great story. I think this one may be my daughter's favorite of the three stories. We've told a lot of people about these stories and it's great seeing them re-released so our friends can now actually get a copy of them. Thank you for your work in putting these together.

While it's probably best to read Jotham first, the stories are intertwined and can be read in any order.

I have this book and would be willing to swap with you for Tabitha's Travels. I don't know if you can read them out of order or not. I do remember that some of the character's from Jotham's Journery show up in Bartholomew's Passage.

I'm so glad that these are finally being re-published!!! We got Jotham's Journey a couple of years back and then the next year went to search for the 2nd book and realized that they were no longer in print! Have searched ever since but just couldn't bring myself to pay the exorbitant prices - especially knowing none of it was going to the author! Thank you for bringing these back - can't wait until next fall - I will be buying BOTH of them to ensure that we don't have the same problem!!

Hi, We have read Jotham's Journey to our kids and loved it, but we don't have either of the other two. Would anyone be willing to trade or loan us Bartholomew's Passage or Tabitha's Travels for this Christmas season? If so, my email is lbickley@prestigeservicesinc.com. I couldn't believe the prices with them out of print until next year. Lance Bickley Upstate NY

We have read Jotham's Journey for a few years and loved it each year. I recently won Tabitha's Travels on ebay. Can you read the series out of order? I know Bartholemew's Passage should be read next. Thanks!

We own the other two books of this series and were very disappointed to find out that they were out of print when we went to buy Tabitha's Travels. Can't wait until next year when we can complete our set without breaking the bank! Our kids have loved the other two books and will be thrilled to hear that this one will soon be available.

I am so glad to see this book will be available again! We have looked high and low for it. We have the other two and have been alternating between them for the past several Christmas seasons! Can't wait to get this one for our collection!

I have been looking all over for used copies of these books -- we have Jotham's Journey but not the other two -- and realized how hard they are to get and how expensive!! So glad they'll be available again -- although I wish it was in time for Advent this year. I hope my kids won't have outgrown the series by next year.

Thank you so much for bringing these books back. I have three children and had decided to give each of my children one of these books when they had their children. A friend let me read Tabitha's Travels to my kids and I had expected to purchase it the following year. There weren't any copies available that Christmas. My children were very disappointed. I'm so excited as I have the other two copies and can now complete our grouping in 2009. Thanks again.
