Golden Axe, The Silver Axe

The Golden Axe, The Silver Axe is a delightful Christian retelling of one of Korea's most beloved folktales about honesty. A poor woodcutter who loves God loses his only iron axe in a deep pond - splash! When a beautiful angel appears holding a shiny golden axe, he tells the truth: "e;That is not mine!"e; His honest heart is rewarded beyond his dreams, while a greedy neighbor who lies learns that God cannot bless a dishonest heart. With fourteen beautiful illustrations, this gentle picture book weaves the values of the Bible into a treasured Korean tale. The story ends with discussion questions, Bible verses, and a short prayer to share together, making it perfect for family reading time, bedtime, and Sunday school. Ages 6-8. Book 3 in the Korean Folk Tale Series from Gospelo Press.
