On Apr 30 2012, Arslectoris said:
'Star of Light' is a unique child's book, set in Morocco and telling the story of a poor goat-herder and his blind baby sister who must flee from a wicked stepfather. Their journey takes them over the mountain and into the great city where the missionary lady lives, the one who loves children because Jesus loves them. Left on her step, the little blind girl is taken into her care and given food, beautiful clothes, and love-- but when the stepfather arrives in town, there is danger for both of the children. This story is fascinating, being based on Miss St. John's real-life experiences as a missionary in Morocco, and so it gives a realistic and intimate glimpse into the life, customs, and ideas of another culture, and the way in which it clashes with our own; and yet she is able to winsomely show the way in which both the street beggars of Morocco and the rich, well-fed child who visits need the Gospel of Jesus Christ to bring light into their lives. A favorite!
