What I Like: The stories are well written. Each one has a strong opening that will draw the reader into the tale. They are short enough to be used for a personal devotional time, a family devotional time, or in a Sunday school setting. The insights were thought provoking and universal. Reeves also did a nice job explaining different aspects of the native cultural and language.
What I Dislike: This is not so much a dislike as it is an “alert” note to parents. Some of the stories had an intense element that might be upsetting to younger readers. Those elements include references to a man-eating tiger, a boy that drowns, and a leopard attack. If your child is sensitive to such things, you will want to preview the story before allowing them to read it.
