About this story
Maya has a planting idea she wants to share. Join Eli, Maya and Mum as they explore the Bible account of Mahlah, Noah, Hoglah, Milcah and Tirzah. Their father Zelophehad has died, and the five sisters ask for their family’s future share of land. They bring their request to Moses, Eleazar the priest and the gathered people. Moses brings their case before God, who affirms their request and gives an inheritance ruling. This selected retelling gently mentions their father’s death without picturing it. Grown-up notes explain that the ruling applies when there is no son; it does not establish equal inheritance between sons and daughters. Separate modern planting scenes encourage listening and making room for another person’s idea. The 29-page digital edition includes fourteen illustrated story scenes, Bible references, seven discussion questions, My Little Caring Plan, a prayer and two activities: Every Idea Matters and Five Names, Five Marks. Children can answer by speaking, pointing, drawing or asking for help. The PDF has searchable interior text; the matching fixed-layout EPUB preserves the illustrated pages and requires a compatible EPUB 3 reader.
