Book Description:
"My son, I have nothing I can give, but this chance that you may live."
With these words, a Hebrew mother places her infant son, Moses, in a basket and sets him adrift on the Nile River. From his carefree days as a prince of Egypt to his flight into the desert, nothing can fully prepare Moses for what is to come. Lynne Reid Banks, author of the best-selling novel "The Indian in the Cupboard," brings the timeless story of Moses to life in this spirited retelling. Enriched with a full-color insert depicting characters and scenes from the film, this is a popular format that will enable older children to experience the movie again and again.
