Twinkle

by Nathan A. Goodman

A tragic accident, a magical discovery, and a storm that threatens to change everything From USA TODAY Bestselling Author Nathan Goodman comes an inspiring story of hope. As the endearing old storyteller hobbles toward the group of school children, none suspect that he will bring them back in time to witness history, and to confront their most daunting questions. As the story unfolds, Jupiter, a slave boy, is suddenly orphaned. But when he and the daughter of the plantation owner discover a magical place in the forest, their lives are changed forever. Then as a hurricane bears down on the coastal lowlands, Jupiter and Remmie must bring everyone, both good and evil, inside the Magic Place. But who will the Magic Place admit, and who will perish? Twinkle will tug at your every heart string, and tickle your soul. Come on inside to the windey, warm, waterway, for the Magic Place lies within...  Nathan A. Goodman's compelling story Twinkle has been hailed as a modern day rekindling in the spirit of Uncle Remus. "A wholesome historical fiction book that should be made into a series. The compelling characters, good vs. evil, all set against the backdrop of the slave plantations of coastal Georgia." "...puts basic faith in terms anyone can understand and answers so many questions that are in the hearts of believers and non believers alike. I will read this again and again." "This book will hunt, as they used to say. Historical fiction of the best type. Reminds me of the Chronicles of Narnia." "A book of spiritual wisdom that people of every age will enjoy...takes the reader on a surprising adventure." "...these explanations are accessible in this enchanting historical fiction tale."

Though I had a hard time getting into Twinkle, maybe because of the long paragraphs in the beginning and the dialect/speaking terminology used, once my mind adjusted, I was hooked. The more I read, the more I had to keep reading. Lots of drama and excitement.

Tender-hearted study of God's love

I teach third grade Sunday school. Some of my kiddos could have been in the book with their precious questions. Simple enough for a child to understand and thoughtful enough to make this meaningful for an adult. Good read.

This was a blessing to read.

I gave this a five for it was a beautiful story about salvation in the Lord. It was a picture perfect start of coming to know the Lord

[Robin Wheeler · Rating 5 out of 5]

Perhaps one of the best books I have ever read.

This will be a book that I will recommend to many and one I will read with my 10 year old son. This book puts basic Christian beliefs in terms anyone can understand and answers so many questions that are in the hearts of believers and non believers alike. I will read this again and again. Than you, Nathan Goodman for listening and answering the call.

Heart Warming

I would like to think by reading this book you would believe in God and Jesus if you did not before.

This is not in the genre of Nate next two books which are outstanding. I am glad I read those first.
