Singing Soldiers

Paperback 2007-03-20

Publisher Description

You wouldn�t send a choir into a battle? Would you set up a sing-song in a stinking old jail? What would you cheer about if your enemy and all his chariots had just gone belly up in the Red Sea? Could you sing a cranky old king out of his bad mood? And what about when you�ve just lost everything you�ve ever loved and singing must be the last thing on your mind? Well, each one of these situations is a real life story in the Bible and in this book.

Barbara Haley, an accomplished children�s author, weaves five tales of modern day children to tell true-life Bible stories in a new light.

Winston doesn�t have to battle with a choir but he does have to deal with his freaky aunt Frieda. Avery hasn�t been chucked into prison but she discovers that people in jail do like to sing � and that even she can be a bit �off-pitch� sometimes. Natalie isn�t watching any chariots drown but her little brother teaches her that God is awesome. Mike is the one who is cranky and bored but he finds out that God�s got plans! And when Danielle doesn�t feel like singing � she finds that there are others worse off and that she can always tell God how wonderful he is.

  • The Singing Soldiers � retells the story of Jehoshaphat.
  • Singing for Jailbirds � retells the story of Paul and Silas
    � Horses and Carrots � retells the story of Moses and the Red Sea
    � Strings and Kings � retells the story of David and King Saul
    � It has to be a Set �up � retells the story of Job.
