Editorial Reviews

From the Inside Flap

This delightful and engaging book introduces children to the ideas of forgiveness and reconciliation, and gently shows how God forgives all that we do if we are truly sorry. Lively, vibrant photographs and real-world examples help children and parents explore, together, the process of granting and seeking forgiveness in God's name--a process that can help us discover God's deepest love for us, and reflect that love to the people we cherish.

This review is from: Does God Forgive Me? (Paperback)

We are using this in our religious education classes as a supplement to our formal materials. After reading this, I felt not only would our second graders benefit from hearing it but also our first and third graders.
