- Abstract
- en_US I read the first two of the 28 numbered short offerings in this print-upon-demand book. They are explicitly Christian and, I would say, overtly pious. A sparrow hears Jesus say that sparrows are sold two for a penny, and the sparrow flies off to town to learn how that much is. After disappointing learning that he is not worth much monetarily, the sparrow overhears the rest of Jesus' statement repeated by the generous widow as she puts in her two cents. The dewdrop struggles with similar questions of identity but happens to splash onto the rose just before the king decides to pick that rose for his bride. There are several black-and-white illustrations along the way.
