Jairus's Girl - L. R. Hay

Pre teen. Christian Bible Story.

 

Tammie’s life in a quiet fishing town would never be the same again. Her future wasn’t looking good - *understatement!* - but things quickly went from bad to WICKED with the arrival of a strange grown-up with nice eyes. And as for the business with Daniel’s lunch, or Dibs’s roof. . . Jairus’s Girl is an entertaining and moving account of the Galilee side of Jesus’s story - aimed at pre-teens, though some adults have sneakily read and enjoyed it too.

Biography
Lynn Robertson Hay’s writing covers a number of episodes for BBC TV, film, radio and theatre - winning an award for Best Children's Theatre from the Writers’ Guild of Great Britain. She was a quarterfinalist in the Academy's prestigious Nicholl Fellowship (yes, *that* Academy), from 6,400 screenplays worldwide.

 

As an actor she’s played parts ranging from Lady Macbeth to Mole, Puck to Miss Prism, and was recently seen wielding a rolling pin as Flo Capp in ANDY CAPP - THE MUSICAL. She has just made her West End debut - understudying Stockard Channing in APOLOGIA, and going on in that amazing role eight times!

Lynn's claim to fame is that she once won an episode of quiz show Fifteen to One.
