Publisher's Synopsis
This book is a poem retelling of the Parable of the Sower, a story told by Jesus in the Bible. The story tells of a farmer who went out to sow his seed. Some seed fell on the path and was eaten by birds, some fell on rocky ground and withered away due to lack of roots, some fell among thorns and was choked by them, and some fell on good soil and produced a great crop. The story encourages listeners to be receptive to God's message and to cultivate a heart that bears good fruit.
The poem is beautifully illustrated in black and white block print by Carolyn Chaffee Li
