Ishtar's Odyssey
"The kids LOVED the cliff-hanger endings. As a parent, I like the way the author ties the readings with Scripture or challenges us to think about our own walk with God."
Ten-year-old Ishtar has a great life. He's a Prince of Persia, son of the chief of the Magi, and lives on the top floor of the royal palace. But then, during astrology lesson one night, he sees a new star in the sky. His father and the other magi get all excited, and before he knows what's happening, Ishtar finds himself on a caravan of smelly camels, walking in the heat and dust of the desert, ignorant about the drama and danger to which the star is leading him.
Includes a menu of treats you can serve with most chapters to taste the tastes that Ishtar is tasting!
