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.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Delightful and Uplifting Read
Review: A quick and deceptively easy read, this book ranks among the truly great books ever written. In an allegory of simple clarity and delightful word-pictures, the author follows Much-Afraid on her epic journey.

Reminiscent of John Bunyon's "Pilgrim's Progress," this book shows the author's own unique touch and personality in prose that has a poetic quality to it.

Read it for the sheer beauty of language. But read it also for the beauty of the story with its amazing picture of love. Perfect for reading aloud, the lyrical quality of the language delights the ear.

This is a book with much to recommend it. It has stood the test of time. It deserves a place among your most treasured volumes.

Summary: Inspiring, Will Lift You Up
Review: Another person who wrote a review said exactly what I felt after reading this book; other than the bible....this book touched the secret recesses of my heart more than any other book I've ever read. There are places in our hearts that hold things unspoken..feelings we have that cannot be put into words. As God and His word touches these places, so did this scripturally sound allegory about suffering, pain, fear, hope, yearning, and above all, the willingness to trust our Shepherd's leading at any cost. Much like the bible, which can be mined for treasure over and over, I believe this beautiful story is the same; I will treasure it forever and re-read it often.

Rating: 5 stars
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)
