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 White Dove Descended, three siblings, Katie, Matthew, and Peter, visit their grandmother's art cottage, where they are introduced to her new painting of John the Baptist at the Jordan River. As Grandma reads the biblical account, the children discover movement in the painting, and upon touching it, find themselves transported to ancient Palestine and the banks of the river. How much of all this adventure does Grandma know?
