Synopsis
"Heartwarming...A message of deliverance and fulfillment...A cause for joy and celebration."
Father Malcolm Boyd
As readers of Noah benShea's beloved international bestseller JACOB THE BAKER already know, Jacob's humble life changed when his neighbors discovered his great wisdom, for everyone wanted to draw upon it to solve their problems. Now, once again, Jacob's life is changing. The villagers propose that he give up baking and become their holy man. Instead, Jacob sets out on a journey, alone without destination. What he learns is shared in this treasure of plain-spoken wisdom.

From Library Journal
This book is a companion to the best-selling inspirational story Jacob the Baker (Villard: Random, 1989), though it can be read on its own terms. In the earlier tale, Jacob became famous when one of his clever scribbled sayings was found in a bread loaf. In this new volume Jacob finds it impossible to pursue his beloved livelihood--baking--because of the popularity of his pithy wise sayings (for example, "It is wiser to be kind than to be wise"). He determines that he must go on a journey in order to rediscover life's simple pleasures. Although some readers will quickly lose patience with this simple story, most will be charmed. Though not an essential purchase, it is recommended for popular inspirational collections.
