Tor, A Street Boy of Jerusalem

by Florence Morse Kingsley

Tor, a young street boy living in Jerusalem during the Roman occupation, witnesses Jesus' arrival and is forever changed.

As Tor grapples with the teachings of Jesus and his own desires for a better life, he confronts the harsh realities of his surroundings and learns the power of forgiveness and love.
