Packed with non-stop action from
the first word to the last, Wanted Alive: The Porter Kids, follows the
exploits of three slippery siblings as they are inadvertently separated from
their mother on a cross-country move. Mom departs the plane in Cleveland, but
The Porter Kids, Jeff, Boo and Sharma, wind up in Chicago.
Naturally, getting back to their
parents is no simple task. Through a string of hilarious circumstances, the
Porter kids are chased by the police, are hounded by a ridiculous mobster in a
shiny suit, do battle with monkeys over a stack of bananas, experience
homelessness on cold city streets and, most importantly, learn of the love and
constant presence of the Holy Spirit.
Wanted Alive: The Porter Kids,
far from being "preachy," allows the reader to develop a deeper and
working understanding of God’s Spirit while enjoying a laugh-filled adventure.
The story neither "talks down" nor "talks up " to young
readers because it is written in the voice of one of the central characters,
Boo. Wanted Alive is the first in a planned series of Porter Kids
adventures. Fasten your seat belts, and get ready for a wild ride.
