Bonita and the Barn on Hiram Edson’s Farm

Linda May Everhart - Paperback

Join Sara, her family, and her favorite doll, Bonita, on an outing to Adventist pioneer Hiram Edson’s Farm in Clifton Springs, New York. Visiting this historic site, they step back in time and imagine the spiritual experience of those who lived on the farm in 1844. What starts out as a beautiful day suddenly changes, when Bonita and Sara end up going through a scary experience that stretches Sara’s faith in God’s care.

Regardless of age, we each need a greater love for God, a stronger faith, and a broader knowledge of God’s intervention in history.

“We have nothing to fear for the future, except as we shall forget the way the Lord has led us, and His teaching in our past history.” —Ellen G. White
