GoodBookStall Review:
A little Jewish boy called Ben appears on every page, watching what is going on. ‘Along the road, along the road, along the road.....’ Children love repetition and will soon be saying the words along with the adult reading to them. Woe betide the reader missing a word, or getting one wrong! With bold black outlines and colourful infilling, the illustrations give a lovely sense of movement, and the story is told from Jesus’ mounting the donkey through to the walk to Emmaus, and of course Ben is there watching.
