The Holy Family In Egypt Mark Glasgow

An exciting novella for children and adults. The Holy Family travels to Egypt just after Jesus is born. They are accompanied by Mary's donkey, a pride of lions, a chimpanzee riding a camel, and a horse. Mary and Joseph are loving parents of a little boy who happens to be God at the same time. You will encounter King Herod, John the Baptist, "the good thief" and Simon of Cyrene. There are Angels, demons, evil pagan priests, a Roman senator and general, a famous gladiator and many more memorable characters. Jesus leaves a lasting impression on everyone he meets and makes many friends, both pagan and Jew, during the His six years in the mysterious land of the pyramids. Jesus, His lion friends and a chariot racing horse named Pegasus, break down the doors of a pagan temple and save a baby about to be sacrificed. He turns a piece of drought stricken land into a paradise and builds a small settlement of followers who will become disciples of Christianity following his death and resurrection. This is an invigorating yet devout story about the early childhood of the greatest man who ever lived.
