A Book Review by Michelle Swope
The Apple and the Arrow is a delight to the Christian eyes. The book tells the story of a boy, Walter, who is young—too young yet to follow in his father's footsteps. But when danger calls, it is another matter altogether! During dangerous times Walter and his father walk side by side, man to man, coequal in manhood and duty. It is Walter who saves his father by ultimate grace and sacrifice when he risks his own life to give him freedom. This test of mercy, courage, and daring—akin to Isaac and Abraham being tested—finds Walter bound hand and foot, an apple placed atop his head. His father is ordered to shoot the apple in two to save their lives. If not, both die. Walter's father, William, is nervous, but Walter comforts his father with these words: "Shoot, Father, shoot! I am not afraid." Thus William Tell's legend was born.
The Apple and the Arrow
Happy tales!
