How can John learn to love a new stepfather?
When John Klessig's father dies suddenly, Mama marries Mr. Ernst, who is very different from Papa. His beard and his boots are big, and he doesn't want to help new families the same way Papa did with the inn. Without warning, fire threatens the village. John and all the neighbors, including the Indians, help each other as friends. But where is Mr. Ernst? How can John and his new stepfather learn to love and respect each other?

John Klessig, The Saxon Boy, has earned the respect of the Wisconsin Writer's Association as the 2013 Jade Ring Stories for Young People winner.

Reviews for The Saxon Boy

I found the story simple yet beautiful. The message conveyed is effective and explains how fear can make everyone work harder for the things they love. The illustrations are cute and make the book more eye-catching. It also speaks about acceptance and how important it is to accept certain things that happen in life without too much resistance. The author connects well with readers with her concept and message. It's a good bedtime storybook and can also be used for read aloud sessions in classrooms and school libraries. All the characters are appealing and they give good support to the main characters, John and Mr Ernst. - Reader's Favorite
