"One of my favorite quotes from this,
"Much-Afraid shrank back. "I am afraid," she said. "I have been told that if you really love someone you give that loved one the power to hurt and pain you in a way nothing else can."
"That is true," agreed the Shepherd. "To love does mean to put yourself into the power of the loved one and to become very vulnerable to pain, and you are very Much-Afraid of pain, are you not?"
She nodded miserably and then said shamefacedly,
"Yes, very much afraid of it."
"But it is so happy to love," said the Shepherd quietly.
"It is happy to love even if you are not loved in return. There is pain too, certainly, but Love does not think that very significant."
I can't quite describe why it touched me but it did 🤷♀️ This whole book does. I recommend it for anyone really, it's very well written and a beautiful story."

"This book changed me. I cried in every chapter and will do it all over again. Very spiritually liberating! Will never stop recommending it."
Kate Boyd
"As someone who is constantly looking for literature that will cultivate a truer and healthier understanding of Jesus, this allegory powerfully displays the beauty of Jesus’ ever-present help and what His love does to transform us into how He sees us versus how we view ourselves. "
