Description

|
|
(1962 Newbery Medal Winner) Also the winner of the 1959 Newbery Medal for The Witch of Blackberry Pond, Elizabeth George Speare earned her second Newbery Medal with this impassioned young adult novel set in biblical Israel. Daniel bar Jamin witnessed his father's crucifixion by the Romans. Now 18, he takes the words from the Song of Solomon—"He trains my hands for war, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze"—and thinks of nothing else but driving the Romans from his homeland. His hatred burns so fiercely that he cannot see how it endangers everyone who loves him, until the gentle words of the carpenter Jesus begin to work their way into his angry heart.
