A child's faith is tested as he travels, not once, but twice through the desert to get medical help for his mother. This fictional story is intended to take the reader through an inner and outer journey. Will he lose his faith in the end, or will it be strengthened? Both journeys are important in this thought-provoking adventure geared toward children ages six through ten. This children's book is an adaptation of the original poem enjoyed by millions, "Footprints in the Sand."
