Methuselah's Gift is a wonderful story of a family of raccoons, who are learning about their creator through the wisedom of the eldest raccoon, Methuselah. Through daily experiences, adventures, and tragedies of the raccoon family, these little creatures learn much about the creator (God), forgiveness, and love.

This book touched my heart in a way that no other children's book has. It is a beautiful story, well-thought out by the author. Methuselah's Gift will make you laugh, wonder, and cry. But most of all, it will make you marvel at God's astounding love for you.

I was thrilled to read about these adorable Christian raccoons hungering after God's heart. The raccoons' desire to learn more about The Maker, and to be like Him, leads right into their becoming "doers" of the Word, and not "hearers" only. This is such a wonderful example for children to learn from. These are Christ-like concepts written so that children will easily be able to understand. I have bought several copies of this book, as well as Methuselah's Heart, and joyfully give them to young parents to share with their youngsters. These books are truly inspired by the Holy Spirit. I would love to see more books by this gifted author.

We read this book outloud and were throughly intrigued throughout the story. It is a book that is hard to put down. It is a wonderful story of racoons personified, as those who would be new or seeking Christians. By example the story teaches us about the heart of God! A wonderfully well written book that has never gotten enough exposure. My children gave this book for a birthday gift to several friends and all enjoyed the book and often bought the sequel Methuselahs Heart. Which is also a good read about the heart of a christian practicing servanthood. It is good for all ages!

I believe that this book shows that ohers have thoughts like us. This book really touched my heart. It is one of my favorite books. This book shows a family of raccoons that are trying to understand humans, under the teaching of Methuselah. It shows what this world should be like all of the way around-kind.

This is a splendid children's story of a family of raccoons discovering the Bible stories. It is one of my favorite books! Good clean G-rated reading!

Very inspiring book. It makes you look at not just the world of raccoons but the world in general. A great bedtime book for kids and adults.
