John
3:16 Marketing Network Excerpt Tour of
“The
Donkey and the King”
Excerpt
Five
A
donkey longs for an easier life with no heavy burdens and no one to
tell him what to do. He runs away and becomes lost, but “good”
finds him in the most unlikely of places.
Travel
to the Bible lands and meet Baruch, a stubborn donkey, and other
lovable animals: Lowly, the pig; Much-Afraid, a small, lame dog;
Worldly Crow, who isn’t as bright as he thinks he is; and a sheep,
Little, sent on a special mission by the King. The ending of the
story will delight young readers as they discover “good” exists
in the world if they look and listen for it.
When
I was young, I hated doing chores. I suppose I was this donkey,
rebellious and self-determined, but desperate for a friend—the one
friend who would never leave me (or you).
Here
is a short excerpt from “The Donkey and the King.” This is the
third stop on the tour. I hope you will visit all the blogs and
participate in the John 3:16 Marketing Network Book Launch and win
the grand prize. See details below.
The
moon cast dark shadows all around Baruch. Hungry lions
R-O-A-R-E-D
in the distance.
The
Donkey found a cold, dark cave to sleep in, but there was no soft hay
for his bed.
“I
miss my friends,” he said, as he plopped down on the hard ground.

On
every page is the hidden word “good.” Can you find it in the
drawings above? If not, you can look below and see where the word is
hidden.
The
unique quality about Kindle-enhanced books is that the drawings and
font size can be enlarged for young readers. And for parents who
can’t find the word, a QR code (a free AP is available for smart
phones) and link is provided to facilitate the search. Some pages are
more challenging than others (for older readers).
If
you enjoyed looking for the mouse in “Goodnight Moon” when you
were young, your child will delight in looking for “good” in “The
Donkey and the King.” The moral: There is good in the world if you
look and listen for the King’s voice.
