Guess who’s joined our Holiday Gift Guide: Bonnie Rose Hudson with her children’s book the hidden village. I can’t wait until Christmas to sit down and read the hidden village with David and Charlie. Or I might just let Charlie have the hidden village for his Birthday as it is 9 days before Christmas and the hidden village would be the perfect book for Charlie to read right before they break for Christmas Break.
The Hidden Village tells the story of Manju, a young boy from West Bengal, India, who acts out the story of Zacchaeus. From the top of the tallest mangrove tree, he finds a hidden village deep in the forest. He wants to do everything he can to help the hungry people in the little village. But what can he do when the people in his village won’t believe his story, and even wild animals and the weather seem determined to stop him from helping?
