Barf.
Speaking as a Christian literature teacher, I would like to hold this book up as a prime of example of why so many "Christian" books suck. Bad missiology, bad anthropology, and bad writing, all in one slim volume: this is the kind of book that only survives in the Christian intellectual ghetto. May God forgive us.
Go read Deborah Ellis instead. She knows how to write the book this book is attempting to be.

I read this forever ago as part of my school carriculum. It wasn't the worst thing I've read, and it had a kitten in it, so that helped!

This book was OK, but it was to easy for my tastes. The story plot was good, and I like how Patricia brought in them turning to god. But the way it was written was like for small children, and (I don't want to be mean) I just kept finding myself rolling my eyes. Cause lots of things were very obvious.
