About the book:

Every Easter, we celebrate that Jesus is more powerful than death. But what does that mean for your little one? Jesus Rose for Me by author Jared Kennedy helps toddlers and preschoolers understand the true meaning of Easter in a personal, memorable way.

This board book is a part of The Beginner’s Gospel Story Bible series. For children ages three to seven, this beautifully illustrated book begins with Palm Sunday and ends with Easter, when Jesus rose for us. Children will learn that Jesus is our king, and that everyone who trusts in him is part of his forever family.

My review:

This is a sturdy, large board book with colorful illustrations that three to seven-year-olds will love!  The story is told so it's easy to understand for children and the Gospel is also explained clearly.  I liked that the question was asked if you've ever asked Jesus to forgive you and that there were a few other questions asked that makes the story more personal and that you can ask the child to think about.  At the beginning of each story it gives Scripture references so you can look it up if you want to find it in the Bible.  I highly recommend this book to help children understand what Easter is all about!

I received this book free from New Growth Press.  I was not compensated for this review.  All opinions are my own.
