Mac and Mattie are thrilled to find a safe, new home in a hillside cave outside of Jerusalem. As mice, they must always be on the lookout for predators. But this spring, they encounter a different serious problem; they run out of food. It will be months before any crops will be ready for them to gather from the neighboring farmer’s field. Only a big miracle can solve their problem. Mac believes in miracles, and he convinces Mattie to believe in them, too. This picture book for children shares the Easter story from Mac and Mattie’s point of view, telling how the two receive the best miracle of all.

About the Author

I have worked in an elementary school setting for over thirty years. I was the administrative assistant to six different school principals. I loved working with each of them. I also interacted with the teaching staff, support staff, students, and parents. Retiring was a difficult decision for me because I loved going to work each and every day. However, for years I have wanted to have my manuscripts made into children’s books. Retirement, gave me the time to pursue my writing goals. I am happy that has been accomplished. I also felt the need for a “pen name” which would be easy to pronounce and easy to remember. I chose Joan E. Frances. Signed: Joan F. Gochinas
