Snatched Up to Heaven! by Jemima Paul and Arvind Paul is a book inspired by their daughters' visions of heaven and hell. Priyanka and Deepika—who were just four and two years old respectively, and did not know how to read or write properly—started to have visions of heaven and hell. The couple uses biblical verses and scriptures to validate the kids' testimonies and find them true to the Bible's heaven and hell. The book is completely filled with kids' visions and the authors' interpretations of them.

The first half of the book is about the visions of heaven, and the second half is about hell. The book is divided into several chapters and contains kids' vision, authors' interpretation, and biblical verses to back them up in each chapter. As expected, the heaven described by the kids is a place of happiness and prosperity where all the good people are, whereas hell is a place of pain and suffering where all the bad people are. Kids' visions are shown to be very rooted and descriptive. The authors' use of the biblical verses helped to back them and prove them right. The book is completely written from a Christian perspective. The whole idea of this book is to give the reader an invitation to Christianity and to prove that is the only truth. Throughout the book, with the help of their kids' visions, the authors are actively trying to advance the need to put the reader's faith in Jesus Christ and to follow the religion of Christianity, as they believe it is their responsibility to bring people towards the religion.

What I liked the most about this book is the proper division of chapters and subheads within the chapters. Each chapter is aligned with the kids' vision and the authors' interpretation in order. The use of simple language is also commendable, as it can be helpful even for a non-English speaker, considering this is written for the whole world. I did not find any negatives in this book. The book is professionally edited.

Although I liked the book and the way it was written, it is not an exceptional one and might not cater to a general audience as it is written from a Christian perspective. So I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

I would recommend this book to anyone, but non-Christians should keep in mind that it is completely filled with Christian ideas and beliefs.
