3.0 out of 5 stars Very wordy dialog-heavy book without much story
If you are getting this book as part of the TOG curriculum, it's not the best read. I would hesitate to get another book by this author. The dialog is really excessively choppy. Mostly, the children are characters who ask their Aunt Lena a million questions about their father's past which she then recounts for them. The children don't do much themselves. It's like reading...

This review is from: Thunderstorm in Church (Paperback)
If you are getting this book as part of the TOG curriculum, it's not the best read. I would hesitate to get another book by this author. The dialog is really excessively choppy. Mostly, the children are characters who ask their Aunt Lena a million questions about their father's past which she then recounts for them. The children don't do much themselves. It's like reading a long and drawn out question and answer session. You can get the exact same info on Martin Luther presented more concisely in Trial & Triumph by Richard Hannula or even the Paul Maier book on Luther. He is certainly well worth studying -- just not with this book. That being said, my children didn't seem to mind me reading it to them though. We just read a chapter a day. It seemed like a lot of reading for no new insight or information. So, if you have the other books, you don't need this one.
