This bright and memorable book shows the next step in the story of Joseph as he chooses to follow God whilst in Egypt.

Book 6 in the Young Joseph seriesA delightful re-telling of the popular biblical story of Joseph. Having helped Pharoah make sense of his strange dreams, Joseph is now the second most important person in Egypt. Pharoah puts him charge of making sure everyone has enough food. When famine stirkes, Joseph's long-lost brothers come to ask Joseph for food - but they don't recognise the brother they thought was dead. Will Joseph choose to help them or take his revenge? Hilarious illustrations by Andy Catling featuring scene-stealing cows! Covers issues of concern to contemporary children such as sibling rivalry, helping others and making good choices.

Fiona Veitch Smith and Andy Catling have done an excellent job. The text is fun and accessible and imaginative, yet still faithful to the biblical story. And best of all, there are cows! -- Bob Hartman, author and storyteller
Lively, fresh and inventive retellings, these fabulous tales of the young Joseph are an absolute delight. -- Alexa Tewkesbury, author of the PENS and TOPZ series
Full of fun and humour, books that parents and children alike will reach for again and again. -- Amy Robinson, storyteller and author
