My friend and fellow writer, Christy Monson has released her new novel, Texting Through Time: John Taylor and the Mystery Puzzle!
“Micah and Alicia are excited to
meet John Taylor as a child in England. But when their phone won’t
let them return to their own time, they’ll follow the prophet
around the world, learning some important lessons along the way.
Humorous, entertaining, and informative, this book is a wonderful
introduction to church history that’s bound to be a family
favorite!
Second in the series and targeting
Christian YA readers Christy Monson's new book is a fun and exiting
dash through the past with our two favourite brother and sister
time-travellers, Micah and Alicia.
With their
scientist father's experimental (and often particular) time-travel
phone in hand, Micah and Alicia's 'quick peek into the past' turns
into a full-blown scriptural adventure that they must solve before
they can return to their own time.
Beginning with the
meeting of a young John Taylor near a castle ruin in 1800's England,
our two explorers discover that this future prophet is already a
person of kindness, integrity and faith.
As they continue to
follow him throughout his life; his emigration to the United States
and his life lived in the service of God, they discover a man who is
also courageous, prayerful and loving.
Laced with
scriptural clues and references and entertaining adventures and
mishaps, Texting Through Time is an exciting race with discovery,
discouragement and dying cell phone batteries.
There isn't a more exciting way to learn about LDS Church history!

Happy Reading! Christy
Thank you, Christy! It was such a fun way to learn. I've never been as much of a scriptorian as I'd like. But if I'd had books like this to read, maybe . . . :)
