"Petronelli weaves a Christian-themed holiday tale that offers no hint of the ending, which is indeed a surprise, and will have young readers rooting for the boys as they try to save Christmas for Shiloh."

"Pritchett's full color, painterly illustrations are soft and muted with a pleasant glow that adds to the book's overall charm."

"A warm and inspirational holiday tale"

It’s Christmas Eve in the small foothill Village of Shiloh.
A father retells the miraculous story that no one will ever forget.
A group of young boys lost in a powerful storm
fight to survive on that glorious night.
The incredible chance encounter with a kind stranger, may be their only hope..

This award-winning book chronicles the spiritual journey of these children.
The lessons learned, the gift received and the lives that were changed.

This timeless Christian tale centers on the true meaning of Christmas; helping those less fortunate, love thy neighbor and assures children …and adults, that if we lose our way, face hardship or struggles, that God is always there by our side.

This uplifting epic adventure will inspire readers to believe in Christmas miracles all year long,
and in the power of just one tiny seed – The Seed of Faith.

What readers are saying:

“This truly is a timeless tale of faith. A story that a family could share in a few nights every year before Christmas. A perfect holiday gift.”

“I am not ashamed to say that my eyes teared up a time or two while reading this Christmas tale. I can only imagine how worried I would have been as a parent of one of those boys.”

”I highly recommend this story. It is a page turner that will keep your child's interest. I wouldn't be surprised to see it as a movie someday - it's that good!”

"This book teaches so many lessons that I'm sure are intended for children, but I feel like these lessons target the adults just as much. It's the children in this story that the adults need to take a few notes from."

" My heart smiled throughout the entire read, and I still can't stop thinking about it. It's adorable. I highly recommend to anyone wanting a short, family friendly holiday story."

About the Author

Author Dan Petronelli (TheSeedofFaith.net) was born and raised in Brockton, Massachusetts. He currently divides his time with his wife between West Bridgewater, Massachusetts, and Stuart, Florida.

He is a strong member of his local community and has served as a Christian worship leader.

Dan Petronelli participated in Smith Magazine's Six-Word Memoir contest, and his memoir was selected and later published by HarperCollins.

When not with his family and friends, he can be found on the first tee ... asking for another mulligan.

Dan found a message in a bottle when he was a young boy tinkering on a rocky shoreline. It was a profound spiritual message that he has kept and still treasures today.

This inspired story was written as a cherished Christmas gift for his family, and it is his hope that the SEED OF FAITH will also bring joy and continue to grow in the hearts of readers around the world.

Illustrator Emily Pritchett (emilypritchettart.com) has loved both drawing pictures and reading books since she was a little kid, so she has combined her two passions into illustrating books for young readers. She has now illustrated ten books, including three Christmas stories! Her favorite holiday memories are of building the artificial Christmas tree, branch by branch, and decorating it with her family. Emily studied illustration at Brigham Young University, and now lives in Boston with her husband and son. She misses the mountains of Utah but still enjoys the snowy winters!
