A Boy of Two Worlds by Lorna Eglin

One dreadful day life changes for the Maasai tribe and their way of life hangs in balance as drought attacks pastures, worms attack cattle, and the young boy Lemayan falls sick. Lemayan only knows the traditional Maasai world but now he has to live in a different world to survive. When Lemayan finds out about a Good Shepherd he begins another journey of discovery to a world where Jesus is King and where all tribes and peoples are welcome.

It is not as in many children's books simply a matter of easy believism, but an exploration of all that is involved from belief to discipleship to evangelismAll is broken down into simple but powerful illustrations and parables to aid understanding in the young...I reccomend this doctrinally sound and extremely educational children's book, placing it among those of a higher standard which can safely be distributed to the children in the our churches.
