I have been reviewing books for the Thomas Nelson Book Review Bloggers. This is a wonderful program that allows bloggers to review christian books. For more info check out my post here.
I was sent the book, The Jesus Book. The Jesus Book is a children's book by Stephen Elkins.
Just by glancing at the cover of The Jesus Book you would assume this is a book for young children. This book is actually more suitable for upper elementary children, due to the vocabulary and reading level of the book. This book could be used with younger children, if the parents wanted to use the book for a short bedtime story as well. In The Jesus Book, the author uses short stories and vibrant illustrations to tell the story of Jesus. The book is set up into sections of who, what, when, where, and why. Each section, tells the story of Jesus and his teachings. This book was a fun read. It gives children information about Jesus from the bible in a short and simplistic way so that they can understand. This book is thought provoking and a way for parents to share stories about Jesus with their children and be able to answer any questions the children may have about the stories. This book already a good by at 10.70, also comes with a children's c.d. that has 30 Christian songs. I defiantly recommend this book for teaching your children about Jesus.
