LION HEART & ALESSIO: THE VICTORY RIDE (BOOK 1) MISSION LOVE & JOY is an educational and quirky adventure about faith, family, and the struggles we must overcome to live a victorious life. The diverse characters in the series go through a transformation where they learn what it means to be accepted by Jesus, not because we follow religious, man-made rules, but by believing in Jesus and inviting Him into our hearts. As the characters accept Jesus as their personal Savior, they receive supernatural powers enabling them to spread this wonderful truth: The Good News. Readers will fill up on Scripture and have a blast doing it as they learn to become superheroes of faith. The author recommends that her series be used as a read-aloud with parents or teachers so sensitive topics can be discussed. Discussion questions and coloring pages are available on her website: meganjoychapman.com.
