Beautiful, tender, and sweet.
Telling this story in the first person was a bold move, but it gives us a taste of what life may have been like for Christ: fully man with all the temptations, pains, and difficulties that brings, yet sinless in their midst; and fully God--powerful and strong, yet gentle and compassionate.
Especially poignant, heartbreaking even, were the scenes involving Avigail. The baptism of Christ in the Jordan and his temptation by Satan in the wilderness were wonderful passages as well.
I greatly enjoyed this book, and at just 242 pages, the story flies by.
