This beautifully illustrated children’s book introduces us
to Jacy, a baby eagle who has been separated from his mother in a terrible
thunderstorm. The storm takes him to a different side of the forest that is
unfamiliar to him. Always safe under his mother’s watchful eye, what is Jacy to
do now? To add to his troubles, he can’t fly. He’s scared and all alone. His
mother always told him if ever they became separated, look for Jesus. Jesus
will never leave you and take care of you remains foremost in Jacy’s thoughts. As
he starts back to the other side of the forest to find his mother and Jesus, he
meets friends along the way. They attempt to point him in the right direction,
but most have never even heard of Jesus, or know very little about Him. This first
book of the Jacy’s Search For Jesus series is the beginning of Jacy’s journey.
Children and parents alike will fall in love with Jacy as they take this
journey along with him.
Carol Edwards does a great job in setting up this spiritual
quest. Her Jacy’s Search for Jesus, Christian children’s book series is an excellent way
to introduce young minds to Jesus. These books are not only entertaining but
there are also life lessons to be learned. Parents will spend quality time
reading and discussing these books with their little ones. The books can serve
as read aloud stories to young children and beginner books for those that are
now reading on their own. Be sure to follow Jacy in the next book of the series
Jacy Meets Betsy.
