Hamid rubbed the light from his eyes and looked again. It was his stepfather! The man watched Kinza as a snake might watch a baby rabbit at play, waiting its moment to strike. Hamid was sure that he would reach out and snatch her away.

A great story for children and adults of all ages. Shows the reality of life in other countries, the effects of poverty and the difference that Jesus can make. Not only in the lifes of a poor goat herder but in that of a spoilt rich English girl. A heart rending story that had me blinking away
