Is there a way to incorporate it seamlessly into a fantasy novel, retaining the parts you want, eschewing the rest? Is it wise to include at all? What constitutes religious writing at all? It’s rare that a book written for kids between the ages of nine to twelve makes me raise such questions at all, but I think a lot of us would agree that The Book of Boy by Catherine Gilbert Murdock isn’t just any old book. Religion is probably right up there on some people’s lists, regardless of the denomination. Some book or idea or concept that tempts them but that they wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot-pole. When you think about it, many authors of children must have something they’re afraid to write. Greenwillow (an imprint of Harper Collins)
