This book by Mr and Mrs Paul has to be in the reading list of every parent as well as their children. It’s short and sweet depiction of important parts in the Holy Bible which could be easily understood by little ones with attractive illustrations. Best for a bedtime story.
The narration of the tale is on point carrying out different sorts of emotions. The inclusion of small gestures which has to be imbibed in children are beautifully written without making them feel like preaching or advice. The interaction with parents and children has to be appreciated. Learning by questioning encourages children to experiment more with what interests them. That’s exactly what the plot did.
It could’ve been more interesting if they’ve included the toddler in the story line in some way or the other. I felt like she was totally left out. And also the thing I interpreted was if a child get to see someone doing something in one way, they’ll try to do the same by themselves. So I fear if a kid reading the story which travels in a particular sort of way might feel to experience the same as the protagonist in this story, they might probably start to manifest things. I personally felt it is more than enough to let children know about God and the love we should have for him. For their age, it is not necessary to feed the scary things or sins or what happens if something is done wrong into their brains. If we teach the right thing, there’s no need to explain the wrong because naturally they won’t turn in that path. Let children only have love for God, we can cut the fear part, even if it is the Bible. That’s what I will do for my children.
I will rate this story a 4 out of 5. We must cross out the negative descriptions from a book for children.
