Escape to the Hiding Place is the 9th book in the Imagination Station series. If you are not familiar with Focus on the Family's Adventures in Odyssey the Imagination Station is a contraption built by Mr. Whit that takes kids on adventures in different parts of time. They go on adventures in the Bible and different times in history. We love these books because they help get our 8 year old interested in history. It's a great alternative to the Magic Tree House books as it uses no magic and I know it is from a Christian perspective and safe to read.

Escape to the Hiding Place is set in World War 2. Patrick and Beth are frustrated that they can't do things, such as babysit, because they aren't old enough. Mr. Whit decides to show them that kids can do great things by sending them on an adventure in the Imagination Station. They end up in Holland during WW2. The story is of their adventure to reunite a baby with his mother which leads them to the Ten Boom's house. My son was enthralled with this book and it was great to share with him about Corrie Ten Boom and how his nana had actually met her. We even have the movie The Hiding Place and I was able to tell him when he gets older we can watch it together. I am glad he read this book so I could share with him about one of my favorite figures from history. Once again The Imagination Station books hit one out of the park.
