AN ADVENTURE IN TIME
Maggie Murphy is in big trouble. She hit her little brother back. As many kids would, she thinks it’s unfair that she is the one in trouble when she didn’t start it.
While trapped in time-out, questioning how life could be so unfair, Maggie is visited by her guardian angel, Mikey, who appears to her as a quick-witted 10-year-old boy. They have a mission from God to “save the philosopher”. But which one?
After Mikey inserts his mysterious keys into her closet door, Maggie is amazed to find an ancient civilization on the other side!
Accompany Maggie back to ancient Greece, where she will:
- Be chased across the acropolis
- Attend Socrates’ trial
- Visit Plato’s academy
- Learn the most important lesson of her life - the true meaning of justice
Justice on the Acropolis is the first installment of the Virtue Adventures series.
ABOUT VIRTUE ADVENTURES
Meet Maggie Murphy, a ten year old girl who lives in Mars, Pennsylvania with the most annoying younger brother. Like any kid, Maggie struggles with doing the right and helping others. However, that is all about to change when Maggie is suddenly commissioned by her quick-witted Guardian Angel, Mikey, to join him on a mission from God.
Travel back in time to places such as Ancient Greece, Rome, and Egypt as Maggie and Mikey save the fate of the world. Virtue Adventures gives a glimpse into history while also teaching readers about the importance of various classical virtues such as Justice, Courage, Hope, and Temperance.
Packaged in a way that kids will understand and enjoy, B.B. Gallagher has created a platform where kids can start a discussion with parents about the various virtues focused on in each installment. Just like Maggie, your reader will grow each day closer to God through reading and discussing ‘Virtue Adventures.’
