Summary: Wonderful allegory of our journey through life
Review: This book is one of my favorites and I've frequently given it as a gift. The story follows the journey of Much Afraid in her quest to reach "the High Places". Because she is crippled, her family tells her she can't do it. But she listens the Good Shepherd who asks her to trust him. As she visits various locations, you'll marvel at her faith and progress.
What makes this book so special is that there are lessons about life hidden in every chapter and there are layers upon layers of symbols underneath the storyline. The book can be read on a story level by children as young as 7 or 8, and older readers can seek the nuggets of wisdom beneath the surface.

Summary: A Comforting Book
Review: This is an extended allegory taken from Habakkuk 3:19 about God making one's feet like hind's feet in overcoming difficulties in life. The author talks about observing the animals in action for herself and discovering that "their motion was one of the most beautiful examples of exultant and apparently effortless ease in surmounting obstacles which I have ever seen." The reference to hind's feet is also found in Psalms 18:33.The first chapter starts with an invitation to the high places. It is in the concluding few chapters that she reconnects back to the book's primary theme. Numerous Christians have been encouraged by this book and chances are you will be too.

Summary: A must read for everyone on life's journey!
Review: This is by far one of the best books I have ever read. It is an allegory about a woman named Much-Afraid who asks the Shepherd to take her to the High Places. She is told the only way to get there is to take 2 companions--Sorrow and Suffering. It is an amazing journey that will make you really think about life and how you live it. I have recommended this book to literally dozens of people over the years, and keep several copies at all times so I can give them away when appropriate.

Summary: Deserved 5 Stars
Review: This is one of the most ministering books I have ever read. I see that the other reviewers felt the same way. Buy this book as a gift, an encouragement, a house warming present, a thank you for dinner present, a Just because present, JUST BUY THIS BOOK, and some for others.
It reads like a story, and my friend reads it to her children.
A wonderful book, (if I didn't mention that before)
