We are not even halfway through this book, but enjoying it so much that I had to review. My 11 year old struggles with reading comprehension so we are taking turns reading this outloud to each other. It’s beautifully written and just the perfect amount of challenge for him. Also the subject matter was pretty fascinating - John is told he might be burned at the stake for merely suggesting that common people should have a Bible and in a language they can read. We take so much for granted when it comes to religious freedom and access to the Word of God. This book has brought out some great discussion points.
