This website is your portal into the Living Tale. I am glad you came. May I introduce myself. I am known as Drake. I am the narrator of the book and will be your guide through these web pages. Keep your eyes open and you will even see the Gardener and Spandar.
This book is unlike other books that you read because it is alive. So, we the characters of the Living Tale, decided to host our own website.
Here you will find special peeks into Henley and the Book of Heroes in the Den.
You'll find a blog in the Refreshing; that's Spandar's domain.
From time to time, we'll also have special appearences from other characters of the Book -- maybe even Grandpa.
Here is what a few of you on your side of the reflection are saying about Henley!
"Jane Smith has written one of the best allegories I've ever read. As a public school teacher for more than 20 years, I am thrilled to see a young adult book address spiritual issues in such a life-touching way. Her allegory makes things of the spirit come to life. I have loaned several copies to youth in our church and am donating copies to all of our local schools. Buy it, read it, share it, donate it. It's definitely worth it."

"A benevolent book? Yes, I think so. This book tells us the fascinating tale of an everyday kid, as with the help of some VERY special friends along the way, transforms into something incredible. Henley Banks's life turns from boring to exciting at the turning of a page and I personally hope that every family in the world has the chance to read or listen to this book. Never before has a book displayed such good will in such an open and clear manner."

"I was excited to a read a book written by a fellow home schooling mom! Her book blew me away. I read it as a read aloud, with my kids begging for one more chapter every time! My son was constantly comparing his heart struggles with Henley's and realizing that he too can be a hero. What an amazing revelation for an 11 year old boy! Please read this book to your children!"
M. Kohn, Montana
"I will admit that I was a bit skeptical about "Henley and the Book of Heroes", assuming that it would be a kid's book (and I am far from being a kid!). In short order my skepticism was gone and I was absorbed into Henley's world. Dr. Smith has found an uncanny way of writing a book that is at once pure fantasy while at the same time, absolute Truth. A must-read for families and kids of all ages."
