The Samaritan Woman

Written by Camille from Marlboro, NJ on June 10th, 2006

  • Book Rating: 4/5

This was a very interesting version of the so well-known Woman at the Well story. I do like the way that Amy explains the living water and her knowledge of both languages--Greek and Hebrew. She does indeed know a lot about Jesus. And I am glad that she likes Him.
