THE BEGGARS' BIBLE
Thirteen-year-old Arnold Hutton wanted to go to college. How could he go without money? He had to earn his living some way. Should he work in the fields or beg for the church?
Why did Arnold lose his temper and hit his friend Timothy's little brother? What was Arnold's punishment? Why did he run away?
What was John Wycliffe, famous Oxford University teacher, doing for the poor people in England? Why did Oxford students march in pro-test?
Who was the spy who reported what Wycliffe said in the classroom?
What was in the secret letter?
How did Arnold, Timothy, and twelve-year-old Lucy help unravel the plot against Wycliffe?
Above all, why was the Bible entrusted to beggars?
THE BEGGARS' BIBLE is based on John Wycliffe's own writings, as well as histories of those times.
