About This Book

A pair of adventurous brothers undertake a winter journey across a frozen landscape, are separated and captured, and then escape perilous pursuit by wolves with the aid of a loyal pony and a repentant helper before being reunited with their family; their trials deepen their character and faith. A second story follows mischievous twins whose identity-switching prank escalates into a nighttime disturbance involving a burglar, prompting legal pleading and a moral reckoning that ends in remorse and family reconciliation.
