Overview
The Harry series is suitable for pre-schoolers and early school-aged children and is about a young boy called Harry who lives on a farm. Each book is based on a Bible story or verse and contains a clear, yet simple gospel message. The accompanying illustrations of the whimsical countryside scenes are hand drawn by Mary Weatherup, who lives on a farm in rural Northern Ireland.
Harry lives on a farm and loves to watch Henrietta the hen and her three fluffy chicks. But when Granda brings his dog Rex to the farm, suddenly the chicks are in danger. Will the smallest chick be able to reach the shelter of Henrietta’s wings in time? Based on the Lord Jesus’ illustration of a hen sheltering her chicks under her wings in Matthew 23:37, Harry learns that the Lord Jesus is calling boys and girls to come to Him for shelter.
