My one gripe is that the map shows Cana as being south of Lake Galilee near the Jordan river. It has a bright joyful tone that gets across the central shock of the miracle. The text is short enough on each page that the story moves along at a good pace.
(John was one of Jesus' friends and the man who first wrote down this story in the gospel of John.) The text is well written, with just the right amount of repetition to please a younger child, but not so much it gets annoying for the parent. The story builds to a beautiful climax and drives home the same point that I think John the Apostle was trying to make. The pictures are bright, vivid and engaging. This is first class, one of the best children’s Bible stories I have ever read. “Vivid and engaging pictures great story telling accurate in content exuberantly happy in tone” I am very grateful to have found such a fine company for amazing products and service. I am so looking forward to our next visit, so we can snuggle up and read! Sophie just turned four and is so interested in Bible stories. She was so excited, especially about the accompanying activity books. Sophie received the books for her February birthday. It was well packaged and contained a thank you note.
She said, “I don’t have this one or this one or this one.” I took note of the titles and authors and that was when I discovered The Good Book company. When we got to the end, I said “What a wonderful book, Sophie!” She turned the book over and began pointing to the pictures of the other books available in the series. It was such a beautifully written and illustrated story. While visiting our granddaughter, she brought me a book she had received as a Christmas gift. “So Happy to Have Found You” (Review written for 'Stories from the Gospels 5 Book Set')
