""Do you know the prophecy?" asked Pastor Hooper.
Ethan nodded. "Someone will be born hereabouts who will look just
like
the Great Stone Face, and he will be the noblest person of his
time."
Ethan grows up in the shadow of The Great Stone Face. With
everyone else in his village, he waits and wonders who will fulfill
the prophecy. One by one, men of wealth and power are believed to
be the likeness of the Great Stone Face, but as the years go by
each one disappoints. Ethan begins to believe the prophecy will not
be fulfilled in his lifetime, until a young child, seeing more
deeply than all the rest, reveals the truth . . .
Gary Schmidt's retelling of this classic story by Nathaniel
Hawthorne is a moving look at the nature of goodness and a life
well-lived. And Bill Farnsworth has beautifully captured the period
and the tale's New England setting with images in the tradition of
the Golden Age of Illustration.
