An enchanting story of a dove's prophetic journey finding her true purpose in life while living in the Holy Land over 2000 years ago.
A turtle dove named Esther wants a baby, but she doesn't have a mate in life. When she happens upon an ancient olive tree in the Garden of Gethsemane she finds a special gift that her eyes cannot believe...and her life will be changed in ways she could never have imagined.
The story adheres to Christian principles and is a charming way to teach children about Jesus or as a teaching aid to explain the true meaning of sacrifice to young children.
Readers will laugh and cry along with this endearing story of love and peace as they follow along a journey of a turtle dove's trials and tribulations. A story parents will want to read with their children over and over again any day of the year, but especially during Christmas and Easter!
The 32 page book has an old-fashioned feel. The 22 tender watercolor illustrations are sure to capture hearts young and old. Available in both hard and soft cover. A perfect gift book.
