Snatched Up to Heaven for kids by Jemima and Arvind Paul tells a story of heaven and hell through the eyes of a child's dreams. Emma has ongoing dreams which she then tells her parents who promptly believe their child.

The story is quite fluid and easy to read. I also did not encounter any errors, and the book seems exceptionally well-edited. Also I enjoyed how the story is divided into several short chapters which makes the layout of the book visually pleasing. Additionally, there are rather beautiful and colourful illustrations making the book more appealing for the target audience.

The book's simplified language and subject matter indicates it's intended for a younger readership. This book uses a children's story format to explain the basis of Christianity. I believe it to be suitable for Christian children between the ages of 5 and 8.

I gave it 4 out of 5 stars because the book does a good job of explaining the concept of Christian heaven and hell to children however I feel like the multiple bible quotes are rather heavy handed and difficult for children to understand. I think the story would flow better if the parents simply explained the bible quotes in their own words.
