Description

Ethan is tired of rules and always being told what do. His mom and dad have always been strict, but things have gotten worse since they've all left home to follow Moses through the desert.

Quick Summary

Ethan has had enough of his parents' endless rules, so when his family leaves everything behind to follow a charismatic leader through the desert, he sees it as the perfect opportunity to test every limit; kids will root for him as he cleverly bends and sometimes breaks the rules while discovering what it really means to have faith and find his own way; if your kid likes "Holes" by Louis Sachar or "The Giver" by Lois Lowry, they'll devour this story of a rule-breaker questioning authority in an unforgettable setting; perfect for kids in grades 5 through 7 who love stories about kids standing up to adults and figuring out who they really are.
