International children’s author and storyteller Bob Hartman has written a brand new series, entitled ‘Talking Tales’. Move aside Noah & Jonah, we’re taking a look at some of the less familiar, but equally important, characters from the Bible. ‘Talking Tales’ is a series of illustrated storybooks looking at the stories of Elijah, Miriam, Elisha and Samuel in a way that is engaging for children and young people. Hi, you may have heard about me before. My story’s pretty brilliant, if I may say so myself. The name’s Samuel by the way and all I wanted was a bit of sleep! But sometimes things wake us up, don’t they? For me, it was this voice calling my name, over and OVER again. Eli and his sons weren’t too happy with me for disturbing their sleep as well. But you won’t believe who the voice turned out to be and what they wanted to say…so I guess I’ll let you find out for yourself!
