From Shakespeare to his close friend Tolkien, each chapter takes you through the life of Jack and the works that steadied and guided him.Readers travel through Jack's boarding school days, The Great War, and his professorship at Oxford. They learn when Jack came to trust in Jesus and how he then became a voice for the Christian world. As each chapter unfolds, young readers are encouraged by the creativity, wisdom, and humility of Jack, while gaining an appreciation for the heart shaping power of books.
