Oct 05, Joshua Castillo rated it it was amazing. I think it is related to the bible kind of. God is trying to tell this native group who He is by protecting them with a stone that is in the middle of the pathway of a rebel army that is on the way to destroy them by teaching them about Jesus Christ.

The chief wonders who is the one true God. Dr Cooper comes to investigate. A few soldiers have managed to get up and over the wall including the commander and captures Dr Cooper and his children. The stone gets larger and larger over a period of t I think it is related to the bible kind of. The stone gets larger and larger over a period of time is spreading over the plains where they live and so at first they decide to run away and then don't. They know the angles of where it was going to hit and travel to the village.

Because the stone is growing, the army retreats. The stone ends up coming on top of them, crushing them. I liked this book because it has similarities to what we as Christians stand for.. For example, scripture supports us thru rough times and in the book, all the buildings have stones on each corner that rise up two and a half feet high to support them so when flooding happens there, they won't get flooded.

Also, the book also symbolizes that Jesus took the price for us while we were still sinners. Aug 05, Stephen Ryan rated it liked it. After a few years away, Peretti comes back to the Cooper Family Adventure series with a really interesting and atypical book in the series. This one finds the Coopers journeying to Africa after a mysterious stone several miles wide and almost two miles high literally appears overnight in a desolate area of wilderness.

This is the most mystery oriented of the series and also the least intense in terms of violence or suspense or scares.

The Secret of the Desert Stone

The resolution to the mystery of where the massive stone came After a few years away, Peretti comes back to the Cooper Family Adventure series with a really interesting and atypical book in the series. Kudos for having a mysterious tribe of vicious cannibals set up to be a villainous force in the book and then having them. It kind of sets up for the book to go in a direction that, as an adult, you expect to be really racially insensitive and then turns that on its head in a nice way.

Jacob Cooper and his children Lila and Jay are summoned to Togwanno to study a huge stone that appeared in the desert overnight. They fly a plane to the top, but crash on the other side.

Tombs of Anak was my favorite I enjoyed this book, while they are a simple story line for kids, there is a lot of mystery and intrigue and a good focus on God's word in them.

Especially if you have a tween or young teen in the house. Jun 29, Charis Jackson rated it really liked it. This one didn't hold my attention as much for some reason. And I felt like it missed something. There was an integral character added to the last book and she's no where to be found in this one. Dec 12, John P. Great book Great Christian Book I personally loved this book, I have read the 1st and 2nd boss in this series and they are amazing Thank you Frank Peretti.

Jan 14, Lyndon added it. Must have read the second set of four volumes 8 short novels in all in the late 90s on my own since our daughters were getting into Harry Potter by then.

I remember them, though, as fun children's adventures taking intriguing and sometimes obscure biblical stories and archaeological finds and weaving them into a solid Christian fantasy. I'm pretty sure they'd make for good, clean reading for children and middle graders today as well. Dec 12, April Nichole rated it it was amazing.

Henderson to remove it. I think at times I have been like Lila was when she saw the big stone.
