This is a wonderfully written book. It is full of action and adventure that holds your attention from beginning until the end. It is a fictional story about David and Goliath that has an important message for kids 8 - 12; God is bigger than any problem you face in life. Thank you Barbour Publishing via NetGalley for the ARC copy of this book. This is my honest opinion.

Imagine- The Giants Fall by Matt Koceich is another great story for your pre-teen/teen reader. Wren has lost her mother to cancer and returns from school to see her house being destroyed by a fire that burns the book manuscript she is supposed to mail to the publisher today. Where is God and why has he forsaken her? She is overwhelmed and sits down on the street to pray asking God why he has forgotten her and her dad only to awaken in Biblical times to meet David the shepherd. She walks with David through the story but at times is separated and has to face and fight the demons. She does remember a verse she carries with her on a card- “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
We know how the story ends if we are familiar with the Bible but there is plenty of excitement and action along the way. We will also learn, after she returns to the present, how Wren’s life is changed by the experiences she has had. I believe this book would be a great read together for a youth group or even parent and child. There are a lot of issues brought up that could lead to wonderful discussions and for some younger readers may need some support to deal with. For example, the possibility that a child could lose a parent. As always, the writing is excellent and the style keeps the reader engaged throughout. I give this book 5 of 5 stars.
I received an advance copy of this book through Netgalley in exchange for my honest review.
