Over the Fence: Adventures in Friendship (a 9-Week Story & Devotional for Kids)

Take one mysterious fence. Add two friends with a perfect plan for the summer. Mix in a new kid from next door and a cousin from New York City. What do you get? The perfect recipe for adventure and for discovering the true meaning of friendship. Join Emma, Ethan, Lily, and Marco on their quest to uncover what's over the fence.

Over the Fence: Adventures in Friendship is the perfect blend of chapter book and devotionals for elementary-age kids. Nine weeks long, each five-day week (or chapter) starts with a story and is followed by four days of devotionals.

Over the Fence is part of the 252 Devotional Series, interactive devotional books for elementary-age children. Based on Luke 2:52, these devotionals are designed to help kids grow in wisdom, faith, and friendship. Other books in this collection include Know God: A 28-Day Devotional Experience for Kids and Stand Up: Get in the Story (an 8-Week Devotional for Kids).
