5.0 out of 5 stars Well Done
This is a first person account of the story of Joseph. It feels as though Joseph himself is telling the story to my kids. The illustrations are great. One of few books that makes Hebrews look like Hebrews instead of Americans. This book and Esther are the only 2 in the series that I can find. I would buy more for the reason of being ethnically correct if I could find...

2.0 out of 5 stars A little shocking
I purchased this book to be part of a character education program at a Chiristian pre-school. Imagine my surprise when half way through the book the Queen asks Joseph to go to her bed! I know this event was in the biblical original, but for kids it could have been toned down. It will not be included in our progrom - some parents may not choose to face the questions yet.

As for the previous writers mention of Potiphar's wife asking Joseph to go to bed with him, I just skipped that line when the girls were 3 and 4. Now that they are 6, I include it and they don't even ask questions about it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Follow the Leader series is great!, March 9, 2005
This review is from: Forgive, Joseph! (Follow the Leader Stories) (Hardcover)
The entire Follow the Leader series is so good. They follow the Bible story very well. I love the way they are written, and the illustrations are incredible. I would highly recommend all of the books. I just wish there were more books in the series.
