Given to me as a birthday present, I wasn't sure what to make of this book at first.

It's a hilarious and thought-provoking story that chronicles the "missing" years of Jesus' life. The Bible tells us about the birth of the Saviour, and we don't see him again til the Sermon on the Mount.

Written in a manner that is both funny and reverent, Lamb is one of my favourites to revisit whenever I need to get in touch with my spiritual side and have a good laugh!

Jesus's childhood friend Levi (called "Biff," which I found to be irritating), gives his account of the Messiah's life, which covers all the previously unknowns from his teenage years and twenties.
