Frances Hook's expressive pictures accompany Wanda Hayes's stories in this collection for young children. Bringing together material from My Jesus Book, My Thank You Book and My Book of Bible Stories, the volume introduces Christian themes through accounts of Jesus, familiar Bible narratives and stories connected with children's everyday experiences. Its emphasis on care, gratitude and faith gives families a way to link the events of the Bible with conversations about ordinary life. Full-colour illustrations invite close looking and help make the stories approachable for listeners as well as early readers. Designed for sharing a story at a time, this picture book offers a gentle introduction to Christian storytelling and the values its characters and lessons encourage children to consider.
