Read and Share Stories about Jesus by Gwen EllisWow. I'm always intimidated when I have to review things written about Jesus. I mean, with that kind of subject matter, is there really an appropriate way to say, "I didn't like this aspect of it." without sounding nit-picky... unless of course they say something that is absolutely anti-biblical.That said, Gwen Ellis did a MASTERFUL job in Read and Share Stories About Jesus of using simple language and selecting stories with points small children could understand. The illustrations are unique and friendly and the overall book practically exudes comfort and love as any toddler book should.A few things that are neither positives nor negatives but may be the 'clincher' as to whether this is what you are looking for.-This is a board book, but is the size of a traditional story book.-It contains 13 stories that from start to finish are a paragraph or two long.-As I mentioned above, this book was written and illustrated in a style that simply envelopes the reader in comfort. As such, the book skips the trial, crucifixion, resurrection in a rather masterful way by using, "Before Jesus went back to heaven to live with God," as the opening for the story of the ascension. Again, very suitable for children who need the love and assurance, and just aren't ready for the grisly details.-The author included a recap and/or discussion question at the end of each story which is great if you wish to use this as a sort of devotional.And here we hit the nit-picky portion of this review.I LOVE making Bible stories accessible to kids, which this team did.
