Jotham's Journey by Arnold Ytreeide
Jotham's Journey by Arnold Ytreeide
Book 1 of Advent Series
Summary:
Over and over Jotham screamed for his family, but there was no one to hear him. They had vanished. He was alone. Where had they gone? How long ago did they leave? Through quick, stabbing sobs Jotham told himself, "I must look for my family. I must search until I find them." And so his journey began.
Jotham's Journey is divided into short chapters for each day of Advent, giving families the opportunity to create a seasonal tradition of storytelling in their home. Ten-year-old Jotham's adventure takes him across Israel as he searches for his family. Though he faces thieves, robbers, and kidnappers, Jotham also encounters friendly wise men, shepherds, and innkeepers until at last he finds his way to his family--and to the Savior born in Bethlehem.

Opening Lines:
Jotham pulled the scratchy grey blanket more tightly around his shoulders, but the wind still slithered down his neck. It was colder now that the sun had dropped below the bare hilltops behind him. Far off to his right was the salty sea where nothing lived. And just over that ridge in front of him--the one that formed the other side of the valley he was in--his family camped. They would be asleep now, warm and safe inside the finest goatskin tents ever made. I would be, too, Jotham thought. If only Father weren't so stubborn!
