Thank you so much to FlyAway Books And Netgalley for the earc to read and review

I always love reading this story of baby Moses, it’s one of my favourite biblical stories and this retelling was probably my newest favourite version. It wasn’t told in the way it usually was, this was told through his sister Miriam.

I loved reading the story being told from her perspective, how brave she was, how worried she was for her baby brothers safety and how she fought her anxiety to ensure that her brother lived. It’s always a beautiful story and this one was told in such a great way.

The illustrations by Melanie Cataldo are exceptional, the detail of them certainly added to the beauty of this book, as I read the next page I was really enraptured by the images in the book.

This is a perfect retelling, it’s easy to follow and very enjoyable, has a beautiful song included, extra facts about Moses at the end and the images are beautiful. I throughly enjoyed this book.

I highly recommend this to anyone that’s interested in sharing the biblical stories with children, they will love the illustrations and enjoy reading the story of Moses and Miriam.

Another wonderful telling of such a well known and loved Bible story. It was well written, well laid out and so easy to understand. We really enjoyed it and I’ll definitely recommend it for use in my class and in my school.

Thank you NetGalley for an advanced copy. As a Muslim, I was curious to review this book. I see that Roth's lyrical retelling matches quite similarly with the Islamic retelling of Moses' story--with one small change. The point of view from the sister is heartwarming. The beautifully detailed illustrations also help children see how life in Egypt was different at the time. I appreciate that the story does not preach one religion over another, and I will be recommending this book to people of all faiths.

Written from the perspective of Miriam, Moses' sister, this is a sweet version of the Moses story. I think children, especially older siblings will relate to this story well.
