Holly Mackle’s retelling of Esther begins with the looming intrigue of an epic movie trailer and unfurls into one thrilling chapter after another. Truly, every description and teaching moment captivates. Undoubtedly, Bright Star will grab your kid’s attention with a delightful determination that says, “Look at what God can do!” (Seriously: I nearly applauded at the end.)

I’ve read Esther dozens of times. But never like this. After each chapter, I found myself wanting to know, “What happens next?” In Bright Star, Holly Mackle has created something beautiful, playful, and compelling. And like the hero of this story, the writing absolutely shines.

I was on the edge of my seat during this adventurous telling of God’s plan to protect His people through Esther. The characters came to life. Big ideas, history, the culture and the God who never changes are explained well for a young reader.
