Snatched Up to Heaven for Kids by Jemima Paul and Arvind Paul is a short story not only aimed at teaching and showing kids or children about the Holy Bible teachings, but also aimed at teaching young people also and probably adults too, though it is a short story for kids.
It is a story about a Christian family of five, where the parents teach their children, Emma, Bella and possibly the younger one whose name was not mentioned about God.

It happens in the story that every night before the children go to sleep, the parents read to them from the Holy Bible and pray with them. This shows that truly the family is a Christian family.

From the beginning of the book "Snatched Up to Heaven for Kids", it is clear and obvious that the authors, Jemima Paul and Arvind Paul are trying to teach the readers - particularly the kids- about Heaven, Hell and other teachings in the Holy Bible in the easy and best way, and this explains why the authors chose the scenarios where Emma dreams that she and Bella went of Heaven almost on every night.
But the thing is this, inasmuch as the authors want the readers to understand those Bible teachings, they should not add up things that are not really correct.

Again the authors want the story to be clear and easy to understand, but God being described as wearing a red robe and that His face looks like that of Jesus is not okay for me.
God is indescribable. In the Holy Bible, it is not recorded that He wears a red robe or something like that. Nobody has that knowledge because nobody has seen God.
Also too, the third person in Trinity which is the Holy Ghost, was almost completely left out of the story. The authors need to consider this too.

The story almost had a sad ending when Emma dreamt about Hell, but quickly, Jemima Paul and Arvind Paul found a way to make a good and happy ending out of the situation and that is the part I love the most.

The book is a good book for kids because it is simple and easy to read, though there were some parts of the story that was out place, but nevertheless I will rate this book 3 out of 5 stars.
