On the eighth day, God created Bubba, a rather imperfect creature
(but, hey, aren't we all?) who makes friends with animals but
wonders why he is the only one of his kind. When Bubba realizes he
was created by God, his prayers are answered when, on the ninth
day, God creates Lucy. After a shaky courtship, Bubba and Lucy
settle in and raise a family, and all is well until a scout from
another race, the Cannites, comes to call. Eventually the Cannites
colonize the area across the river from Bubba's home, and his
children leave the nest and marry into the Cannite tribe. Alas,
there's a secret Bubba and Lucy have never told their children:
that the Cannite scout who had first arrived had assaulted Lucy,
and Bubba had killed him in defense of his wife's honor. That
secret, the only time Bubba and Lucy have ever lied to their
children, comes home to roost in disastrous fashion as it turns out
the scout was a member of the royal family . . . a family into
which Bubba's children have married. Through it all, Bubba
perseveres, prays, has dialogues with God, and ultimately is
fast-forwarded into the future to Alabama, where he is befuddled by
motorized vehicles, television sets, modern man's fascination with
sports -- and the fact that the people there seem to only look for
God on one day out of the week. This book is a wondrous spiritual
journey with a lesson in faith for all ages that no one should
miss!
