Adventures through the Bible with Caravan Bear and friends.
One morning, Rabbit discovers a birthday parcel addressed to him. Inside
is a Bible and on the flyleaf is written 'Read Me'. As he wonders at
this odd present a brightly painted gypsy-style caravan hurtles down the
road... and narrowly misses him. Rabbit picks up the book and joins the
caravan travellers - Fred the horse, Caravan Bear and Whitby,
the dog.
The Animal's Caravan, has echoes of children's classics such as
Wind in the Willows and Alice in Wonderland as Rabbit leaves his home
to set out on an unexpected journey - a journey to find friendship and
make sense of the world around him. He also finds himself on a journey
of faith as he and his new friends wrestle with some of the often
difficult concepts in the bible, thereby gaining fresh insights and
understanding of God's loving involvement and care for the world. The
travelling life of the caravan and its occupants provide the opportunity
for Rabbit to share these tales with other animals they meet and they
join Caravan Bear, Whitby and Freddie in listening - and learning from -
the stories. He is frequently interrupted by questions from his
listeners, the kind of questions any child - or adult - might ask.
The
real and often humorous events that happen to Rabbit and his friends are
mirrored by the stories from the Bible enabling children to realise
that the stories have relevance and meaning today.
