Edie's Forest Adventures Robert Sexton

This is a book about teenage Edie and the forest friends she makes and communicates with. It is through our imaginations that we see and can relate to animals like Freddy the fox and Penelope the porcupine (and a host of other creatures of interest). It's about good humor, real friendships, and accepting and appreciating those who are different than us. It's about miracles, like the miracle of Edie speaking to forest creatures and their understanding each other; the miracle of rescuing a bear cub from a deep crevice in a huge rock; then the rescue that saved the life of another little cub from a hunter's old bear trap. It's about changing the ways of the forest; from mistrust, hostility and fear; to trust, friendship and acceptance. It's about a changing of hearts, and God's love for all.
