We are two girls from fith grade.
When Johns father accepts to go to India for junior magistrate John and his mother know that their is a lot to explore.When they meet Miss.Carmichel she invites Johns mother to Dohnavur fellowship. Then they meet an Indian girl who her uncle is trying to arrange a child marriage for her. A few months later Miss Carmichel went to court to try to get custody of Jewel. Miss Carmichel was forced to let Jewel to go back to her uncle so she could get married. So John took Jewel to safety so she didn't have to get married. From then a man took her to China so she could be safe. This book was awesome! We think it needs five stars for having excitement and action.
