This review is from: The Ballad of Little Joe (VeggieTales) (Little Golden Book) (Hardcover)

In The Ballad of Little Joe, a familiar bible story is brought to new life as Little Joe is put to the test by his family, and God. Little Joe is thrown into a mine shaft and sold to robbers. He works at a pizza joint and gets thrown in jail, but in the end, it is Little Joe who comes out on top, helping and forgiving those who have persecuted him.

Our two year old son wants to hear this story over and over again. His copy of the book is tattered and worn, yet he carries it around with him all day long, chattering about Little Joe. At only [...], this is an extremely good value. It is well written and fun to read.
