ÒGr 1-3-- A mouse named Amos builds a boat and sets off to sea. In one unfortunate moment, he finds himself cast overboard in the middle of the ocean. As he contemplates his death by drowning, Boris the whale emerges. This Spanish translation is wonderfully told and will be a natural for storytime. The watercolor illustrations capture the emotions of the two very unlikely companions who become best friends.

Amos was a humble 'sheep raiser' and 'nipper of figs'(Amos 1:1/Amos 7:14) who was called by God to become a prophet to the idolatrous 10 tribe Kingdom of Israel(Amos 7:15)with it's calf worship, around 829-804 BCE. The entire book of Amos is composed of prophecies about God's execution of judgement against faithless Israel (Amos 3:1-Amos 6:14/Amos 7:1-8:14), as well as Judah and pagan nations at the time(Amos 1:1-2:16), but also held out the promise of a restoration for all those faithful to YHWH (the God of the Bible)(Amos 9:1-15).
It is a name of Hebrew origin meaning to carry.
Amos in the bible ,was a herdsmen before god called him.
Amos criticizes the worship that is hypocritical, focused only on outward acts rather than inner faith, and that is disconnected from justice and righteousness in society. He rebukes those who participate in religious rituals while neglecting the needs of the marginalized and oppressed.
Oh, dude, Amos Fortune's story is divided into 19 chapters. Yeah, like, 19 whole chapters of his journey from being enslaved in Africa to becoming a free man in America. So, if you're looking for a good read with a decent number of chapters, that's the one.
