Hedge of Thorns, The

Great Book
From Sara Moates of Lebanon, Tennessee on 4/4/2021.

I bought this book for a young boy in my church. I wanted to read it first to make sure it was appropriate for understanding consequences of one’s actions. I have not been acquainted with Lamplighter books very much. This is a perfect book for teaching children the need for obedience - especially when they have a disregard for the loving authority over them. Wonderful story, very Scriptural in its presentation.

A Powerful Little Book
From Greg. of Grass Valley, California on 11/2/2020.

This a short but powerful read with a message that can transform young and old alike. It is presented in a lovely hardback form that looks great on a bookshelf. The typeset is easy to read and beautifully done, and the illustration just add to the truth taught in book. I highly recommend this book.

Great Little Book
From Anonymous of Benbrook, Texas on 10/3/2020.

My first Lamplighter book to read. I read it aloud to my children ages 17, 13 and 10. We all enjoyed it. Such a touching story.

Excellent Read with Audio Drama
From Elena V of St Paul, Minnesota on 8/30/2020.

Read the book as a family (With a 13 & 10 year old, public school students). Both adults and kids liked it. (English is advanced so we will be re-reading the book with pencil in hand to learn some of the new vocabulary). After reading the book we listened to the audio theater CD. It too was excellent. The story on the audio deviates only slightly and is very, very well done. Highly recommend both in the order we did it. Book is based on a true story. The kids now want to visit City of Carlisle In England - the setting of the book. Only wish we knew the village name too so we can go searching for that Hedge from 1611.

Highly Recommended!!
From Lorie Crow of Findlay, Ohio on 4/20/2020.

The Hedge of Thorns was the first Lamplighter book that our family of six...ages 48,46,19,16,15 and 10 read aloud together, and we ALL eagerly looked forward to each chapter every night we read!! It faithfully proclaims the goodness of our God and how wise and kind He is to reveal to us the narrow way of Christ by the power of His Spirit that we might trust and obey His precepts for our good and His glory!! I highly recommend this book as a family read aloud as it is filled with great truth for all ages!!
