His parents have died and he is so young, so small. He wants to be important - so important that he can carry the shield of the great warrior of his people: Goliath. Unfortunately, Goliath just laughs at him. So Galen gets desperate and sneaks over into the Hebrew camp. Rather than finding valuable information or slaying the enemy, Galen finds news of a God who loves him and is more powerful than even Goliath. As the battle between the Hebrews and the Philistines gets closer, Galen has to make a choice about whom he will follow. | Extra Notes: | This book is a part of a series that takes true acts of history as recorded in the Bible and places a fictional character in the story, witnessing the event.
