4.0 out of 5 stars
Sweet lessons for early readers,
This review is from: Storytime With the Millers (Paperback)
For the Christian parent, this is a very good choice for your young reader. There are about 8-10 stories, each centering on a different Bible verse. Although you might be put off by the dress of the family on the cover (I think they're Mennonite), the stories are truly sweet and you can't tell that they're Mennonite except that the families seem to live on a farm. (I don't recall them saying anything about "Uncle Johns," for example.) I have some Rod & Staff books (Little Jewel books) and I found the stories in this Miller book to be better written and, maybe because of that, less didactic and more enjoyable. (Don't get me wrong: we still enjoy some of The Little Jewel books. However, the writing isn't always great and I haven't cared much for the poetry ones. They are also more overtly Mennonite.) The verses are also not obscure ones and the lessons are definitely things you have probably already talked about with your children. For example, there is a story about turning away someone's wrath, a story in which Mama confesses her sin from the past, a story about obedience being the best sacrifice, and a story about a boy overindulging in sweets. Very well done.

This review is from: Storytime With the Millers (Paperback)
I love all "Millers" books. They are such timeless, interesting, conversation producing stories. Our biggest problem is only reading one story at a time. If you enjoy old fashioned values and long for a time of yesteryear - this book is for you!
5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Children' Book,

This review is from: Storytime With the Millers (Paperback)
An excellent book for teaching children Christian virtues. The line drawings attract children. Especially of interest to children 5 - 9 years of age.
