Book details
Overview
Twelve-year-old David Snod's life is nothing but problems: He can't stop stuttering. He gets bullied constantly. His little sister, Sophia, acts like she's his protector. His teenage brother, Chris, torments him, calling him "Nose." Worst of all, David doesn't have enough money to buy the popular SkyJam basketball shoes. Now the school's bully, Ron-Ron, has created a plan to humiliate David online—unless David can buy a pair of SkyJams. And of course Ron-Ron knows David can't afford the shoes! However, if David takes part in his brother's unique and dishonest business, he'll have the money. But David's uncle has been sharing lessons from the Bible about truth and honesty. Which path will David choose?
Description
According to the CDC, in 2021, the suicide rate surged among youths. The children of today are searching for answers to their daily challenges: insecurity, bullying, and peer pressure.
Scriptures from the Book of Proverbs (the book of wisdom) were woven in and out of the story. And to capture the audience’s attention, the novel was sprinkled with humor; however, seeds of hope were planted for the despondent reader.
The Unusual Life of David Snod: Episode 1 (for ages 9-12) teaches children how to face life’s obstacles; it reveals that God is the greatest artist, and we’re his beautiful portraits. Written for a child, but a lesson for all.
