The Green Coat: A Tale from the Dust Bowl Years

 Our Description

I could not put down Rosemary McDunn's THE GREEN COAT. It's amazing how naturally McDunn weaves God's sovereignty into the story to explain why God allows hurt, death and disappointment into our lives. The story has a lot to say about how, in the midst of tragedy, God is at work through the silent, selfless works of sacrifice and love, which are paid back one-hundred fold. It was a delightful three hours absorbing a work of art that fed my soul. This would be a great book for public school settings to counter the bombardment of books about dragons and witchcraft. The Green Coat is the type of historical fiction that is at once both educational and morally sound.

(Pam Williams, Public Middle School Teacher and Catholic Religious Education Instructor)
