There are twelve
chapters. They deal with popular Bible
stories. For example, chapter six
contains four parts: Ruth, Naeomi, and Boaz: Love Wins the Day; Jonah, a Big
Fish, a Great City and the Forgiveness of God; the Book of Job: Shaking a Fist
at Heaven; and Songs of Light. Each
chapter starts with a few paragraphs explaining what it contains, and then the
parts include illustrations. Some of the
pictures were a little abstract for me, but the patterns will surely appeal to
children.
Since the stories are
short, it was easy to read one every night before bed and then discuss it with
my family. My grandmother also enjoyed
it. She has dementia and we’ve hired
people to sit with her at nights. They
all enjoyed sharing these stories. They
were quick and simple enough to keep her attention, while keeping the
meaning. This is a perfect addition to
any library for children of all ages.
