‘Abdu'l-Bahá recounted to Lua Getsinger, an early American Bahá'í, the age-old stories of Ios, a shepherd, and the king he loved. Each story portrayed the sort of love, loyalty and devotion we are meant to have for God.

Here, Gail Radley has retold the stories for a new generation, their parents and teachers. To help young readers think about the meaning of each story, she has included questions for discussion at the end of the book.
