On the Run by Bill Myers

I have been a fan of Bill Myers for a long time. On the Run is the first book of his newest series.

Three siblings, Zach, Piper and their younger brother Elijah are just going about their day - walking to school - when a puppy gets hit by a car.

Elijah holds the puppy and brings it back to life.

What?!

Plus, there's some organization called, The Organization led by The Shadow Man who is out to kidnap Elijah.

The chase is on, from their home, to their aunts, to a hospital where Elijah brings a girl out of a coma.

It seems like this could be an allegory but it's still too soon to tell.

These books are nice and short - you can read one in less than an hour.

Bill Myers is amazing.
