Joel, a crippled boy, cannot play with the children and has nothing to care about. Rabbi Phineas helps him to find something he can do and tells him the reason that he is so kind is because of a boy from his hometown of Nazareth. Soon stories are going about everywhere of miracles, and some people think that the Messiah has come. Then someone tells Joel he should ask for his back to be healed. Will Joel be able to find the miracle worker? (Summary by AdeledePignerolles) (3 hr 53 min)

thank you


(5 stars)

I am glad I listened to this book, however, I wish Esther (the narrator) would have 1. Used better recording equipment, 2. slowed her narration down, 3. Pronounced the text more clearly.

Beautiful story passionately read


(5 stars)

Thank you Esther for reading this story with so much passion. I enjoyed it and glad that I read it. I almost didn’t after reading other people’s reviews. To all readers, it’s important to try things out for yourselves and not base your decision solely on other people’s reviews.

CONFUSING


(0.5 stars)

This book was very confusing. It was hard to take notes and follow along with the reader. I would not recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good book to read.
