Jotham’s Journey is a wonderful book about Advent and we have read it and the following books over the last several years during the Christmas holidays. The latest installment in the series is called “Amon’s Adventure”. Our family loves reading them… I was so excited to see that this was being released, I couldn’t wait to order it. My kids were really looking forward to starting it.
The latest in the series takes you on a trip through the season of Lent, culminating on Easter Sunday. It involves “Jotham” (the character from the 1st book) as he is accused of a terrible crime. His 13-year-old son (with Tabitha from “Tabitha’s Travels”) is Amon, who tries to save him. Along the way Amon joins the crowds on Palm Sunday, hears the Messiah speak, outwits Roman soldiers who plan to kill his father and Jesus, witnesses Judas Iscariot’s betrayal, and beholds Christ's crucifixion.
We love these books as they are set in fact and biblically based. The characters are of a similar age to my own kids which makes it easy for them to become “involved” in the story. The series’ also have end-of-chapter devotions and the website has all kinds of great info and questions that can be used with the book…
