"Quirky, funny and immensely enjoyable" kids'-eye take on the first Christmas - aimed at preteens, sneakily enjoyed by adults
Jamie had BIG dreams. He wanted to be a prince. He wanted his dad to marry a lovely young woman called Mary. He wanted an army of little brothers and sisters who would look up to him and think how clever and important he was.
But at no point did he expect one of them to be a long-awaited king, destined to reign forever. Nope. Not part of the plan...


The kids have taken over the Jesus story
JOSEPH'S BOY is the first of The Young Testament, a fun, accessible series of full-length books covering the whole, breathtaking sweep of the Jesus story and beyond, all from the perspective of the children.
Overlapping and weaving together into one story world, each book has a different child as the main character - until the fifth, where we will follow all of them and their friends into young adulthood. JOSEPH'S BOY covers the birth and childhood of Jesus and his cousin John the Baptist, with apprentice carpenter / wannabe prince Jamie as our engaging yet sometimes huffy young hero.
