Illustrated by
Natascia Ugliano.
Jules retells and expands upon the story of Sarah, wife of Abraham. This quiet version, informed by biblical scholarship and legend, emphasizes Sarah's feelings and faith. The illustrations' curved lines and soothing colors match the book's calm tone; this is an epic story presented as an accessible human drama. An author's note provides information about sources.
