The Hedge of Thorns

The Hedge of Thorns is by Mark Hamby. Based on a true story, this is a gripping account of a young boy who learns the hard way that the choices we make can harm those we love the most. Because he desperately wants to know what is on the other side of a hedge of thorns, he puts his little sister in great danger. From his experience, we learn that God places boundaries in our lives because He loves us. This story is written from a definite Christian worldview. It is one of the finest tales of the consequences of disobedience I've ever read. I highly recommend this small book.

Ratings: 6th grade - 10 out of 10.
