5.0 out of 5 stars My 8 year old daughter and I both read them!, February 21, 2000

By A Customer

The other reviews are right on! The books are great - fast paced and interesting. My daughter and I both enjoyed them. Since the books are for an older age, I read them before my daughter.

The books are not scarey and should be read by any child, especially those in Christian homes! We never quite know the extent of our children's faith, these books may help them to think more themselves.

I have read both the adult and kid Left Behind series and recommend them! The kids books are almost better than the adult ones!

5.0 out of 5 stars Left Behind, February 22, 2000

By A Customer

This series is great for all ages! I have been reading these and the older "Left Behind"'s. I think it's really interesting how the older books and the younger ones corrolate in the events that take place. I encourage you, if you are old enough, to read both series of books. When you do it covers both a kid's perspective an adult's perspective on the Rapture and the Tribulation. I look forward to more books from these authors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Eyes Opened Wide, December 15, 1999

By	Melissa Jones (Georgia) - See all my reviews

I thoroughly enjoyed the Left Behind series of books about the kids. The book starts off with four regular families living everyday lives. Some of them are very Godly people and some of them are not. The four children left behind were all shocked to find out that their families were gone. The rapture had come, and they were left behind. The book tells about the life after the rapture. If you are on earth, it is like you are in hell. The children realize they have to get in right with God, start living a Godly life and try their best to be like they should, for when God comes back, they want to go with him. If anyone does not know about God and is not aware of the choice you have to make as an individual in your lifetime, these books will really make you think. The thought of being lift behind horrifies me. You do not know what your future holds, or if you will ever get another chance. As the four children's eyes were being opened wide, they realize what they have missed and what they were going to have to do. They have to do everything it takes to try again, this time better though. As the children learn the truth and search desperatly for answers, they realize the after affects of the happening and realize what that they HAVE to do better and study the word of Jesus Christ and get closer to God day by day all day everyday. I recommend this series of books to everyone, everywhere. It really opens your eyes and makes you think. It in a way scares you and makes you just want to be closer to God and be in the word. Because of the descriptions and happenings in the book, they just seem so real and just true that it scares you to just not want to be with family and friends forever and never alone. Everyone needs to read these books and continue on by reading the words of Jesus Christ.
