A short summary of Out of Egypt:
A short tale about a young boy named Jesus.
My favorite quote from the book:
"I was sent here to be alive. To breathe and sweat and thirst and sometimes cry."
Questions to ponder while reading Out of Egypt:
How much should young children know?
How would you feel?
My thoughts about Out of Egypt:
I was pleasantly surprised by this book.
Ms. Rice did a great job bringing to life a precocious and empathetic child.
I can't imagine how I would feel after finding out such a secret.
I was devastated to think that a child would ultimately have to carry that type of burden.
