Big Thoughts for Little Thinkers
Someone once said that Biblical principles are simple enough for children but deep enough to take a life-time to learn. This compact series presents Biblical concepts to children page by page in a brief, kid-to kid way. The Mission, for example, explains God's plan to call people from every nation to Himself. A different main character is used for each book and text is written as though that child is speaking to yours. The bottom of each page lists Scripture references so you and your child can dig deeper into the Bible itself. For example, Gracie on one page of The Gospel tells you that God made you, loves you and knows what will make you happiest. Scripture references for this page include Psalm 139:13 and Isaiah 43:1. Full-page color illustrations fill each page and the text is large and could be read by young readers. The text does a good job of introducing deep spiritual concepts without "dumbing down" or misrepresenting content. I like this series on its own but all four books are also part of the Biblical Beginnings for Preschoolers Curriculum. 5 1/4" x 1 5 1/4", 32 pp, hc. ~ Ruth
