Religious Fiction
Review:My grandson, age 8, was so enthusiastic about the book that he loaned it to his teacher to read. Then he used his allowance to order the entire series. Their mom reads it to my six-year old granddaughter who thoroughly enjoys it also. Read more
Review:This an adorable story that's perfect for bedtime. It's a board book and it rhymes (two of my fave things in a baby book), plus the illustrations are wonderful. Very soothing for baby. I would purchase it again. Read more
Review:The dimensions of this publication are larger than I expected, and is more like a children's picture book than the small books I have purchased in the past for adults. Make sure you check the ISBN of the specific version you are looking for, because all of them are different. I could not give this one as an adult gift, so I still have it. Read more
Review:Great book to help little one's understand heaven and what it is believed to be. I'm not a religious person and not really sure that I believe in heaven and hell and God and all that, but even I enjoyed reading this to my 3 year old while my father in law (her grandfather, obviously) was dying. After his passing, she really took to this book as well as a couple others that were equally "enjoyable" and great learning tools for little minds. Read more
Review:This little book reads simply - it is meant to be a children's story, yet the message is deep and thought-provoking. It is beautifully illustrated, and helps us all gain some understanding of why some people have lives of suffering. The souls who tell the story come to realize that the soul is much larger than any physical life they inhabit, and that a life experience is meant to help all souls grow. Read more
Review:Written by well-loved Max Lucado, this book is designed for children 0-2 years old. It is a short book, filled with bright illustrations of Litter Hermie the caterpillar. Throughout Hermie's day in simple poetic format, he remembers to thank God for all the blessings he encounters. What I thought was rather creative about this book is that the pictures seem to tell an additional story. Hermie eats breakfast, then goes to play ball with his friends. Unfortunately, Hermie loses the game to Wormie,... Read more
Review:I was a little concerned about this story line because I felt it may result in bad dreams for my young boys. The little boy gets lost in the woods because he disobeys. The "father" figure goes out to find him in the end. In my opinion, not a calm bedtime story. Read more
Review:So, I probably should have read the reviews, because I didn't realize this book was religious and that's not our family's thing. The general message of the book is good but I wish it didn't use words like "Lord" and "worship." I am fine with the Christmas story and think that's important and the message of giving is better than recieiving and the real meaning of Christmas but I think there are ways to do that with a more secular tone.

Review:What an insightful way to look at raising your child. I wish this book was available when my kids were young, not as much for them but myself. It could of helped me keep a healthy perspective when u r in the middle of raising young ones. I now give this book as a gift to new moms. Read more
Review:Dr. Marshall has crafted a thoroughly entertaining series here. He's woven history, religion, imagination, suspense and compelling narration with the best authors out there: James Rollins, Michael Crichton, Clive Cussler and more. I love that about the book (and the entire series); Dr. Marshall paints a grounded, believable world of the 4th century AD while sure-handedly commanding the elements of the story. It's a true period piece. His character Jurian (Saint George the dragon slayer) continue... Read more
