(3) 4-6 Convinced that a practical joke she played on her pilot father caused his plane to crash, Amelia can no longer hide her turbulent emotions when an ex-convict called Brother Mustard Seed arrives at her house, claiming to have seen her dad in visions. Told in a homespun style, the poignant story gently, sometimes humorously, probes into questions of faith and highlights the importance of keeping an open mind.
