The Outsider: Ruth: A Retelling (A Biblical Fiction Chapter Book for Middle School Kids, Girls and Boys Ages 8-13, Grades 3-8)

The biblical story of Ruth brought to life in this gripping chapter book for middle school readers.

The Bible story of Ruth is imaginatively brought to life in this biblically faithful chapter book that helps kids 8+ engage with God’s word. Readers will find themselves immersed in the hearts and minds of Ruth, Naomi, and Boaz as they experience difficulty, uncertainty, danger, and rescue.

With an emphasis on God's relationship with his people, this retelling is careful to depict human relationships appropriately and in light of God’s love for his people. Kids will learn that God’s providence, provision, and kindness extend to all kinds of people, even to those who are outsiders.

Includes a Bible-reading plan and notes that differentiate the known facts from the imaginative parts.

Makes a wonderful gift for children 8+ years. A discussion guide is also included, making it ideal for book clubs and homeschool co-ops.
