Virtue Adventures

"Ready to answer His call?" Mikey asked. With all the courage she could muster, Maggie nodded and stepped through the doorway alongside her guardian angel. Maggie Murphy is in big trouble. She hit her little brother back. As many kids would, she thinks it's unfair that she is the one in trouble when she didn't start it. While trapped in timeout, questioning how life could be so unfair, Maggie is visited by her guardian angel, Mikey, who appears to her as a quick-witted ten-year-old boy. They have a mission from God to "save the philosopher." But which one? After Mikey inserts his mysterious keys into her closet door, Maggie is amazed to find an ancient civilization on the other side! Accompany Maggie back to Ancient Greece where she will be chased across the acropolis, attend Socrates' trial, visit Plato's Academy, and learn the most important lesson of her life — the true meaning of justice. Justice on the Acropolis is the first installment of the Virtue Adventures series.

Maggie shifted on her feet and peered around Mikey at the open door. A warm breeze blew into her room from the tunnel beyond the door. "I'm not a wimp," she repeated - this time, raising her chin and walking past Mikey toward the door. As she approached closer, she heard what sounded like a stampede of hooves, booming down the tunnel. She stepped through the door into the tunnel. Her feet found a stone corridor with trails of sand between its paving stones. Mikey followed and closed the door behind them. The door then vanished and yet again, Maggie was on the other side unsure of where she was or when she was. Join Maggie and Mikey in this second installment of the Virtue Adventures.
