description: The Believe...and You're There series is comprised of magical time-travel adventure books, each in a fast-paced, short-chapter format that targets young readers from 7 to 13. Transported through their grandmother's enchanted paintings, three contemporary children find themselves as witnesses to many of the central events of the scriptures. Against this background, scripture stories that may have been hard to understand and appreciate now sparkle with energy and meaning. In When the Stone Was Rolled Away the children accompany Cleopas along the road to Emmaus, as he tells what happened there. Later in Galilee, they meet Zebedee, the father of James and John. Having been present at the crucifixion of Jesus, Zebedee wonders how he could ever believe in His resurrection without seeing the risen Lord for himself. Hearing the testimony of Thomas and others, Zebedee-and the children- discover that belief does not require seeing, and the children return to the cottage to find Grandma humming the same melody Zebedee was singing in another time and place...
