Summary: Mario eats tortillas and delicious peccary soup. He bathes in the river where his father catches fish and his mother washes clothes. Mario's parents read the Bible and pray and teach him right and wrong. At night, Mario knows that far above the thatched roof of their house, far above the twinkling stars, God in Heaven sees him in his little wooden bed. This delightful story introduces life in Belize with four-year-old Mario and his family.

Summary: God's great tenderness in carrying us through the rough places of life can be a great cheer to anyone but perhaps especially to seniors. Spiritual freshness and joy delight the soul that rests in Him and serves Him in prayer and kindness to others. However we are all warned by some who drifted away from God and dishonoured Him in their old age.
