P eople still kept sinning because they didn't want God in charge. Because of their sin, God sent them out of the garden and put warrior angels in front of it like a big KEEP OUT sign. And best of all God was there. Unfortunately the people did a terrible thing and decided they wanted a world without God in charge. Here is a brief synopsis of the book : It begins in the garden where there was nothing bad, ever and there was no one sad. It opened up a great conversation with my eight year old about what the Bible tells about sin and we loved talking about what was happening in the pictures. His story is beautifully illustrated by Catalina Echeverri's stunning illustrations. On the first day I got this book, I already read it several times with my kids. Author Carl Laberton tells a story which is accessible for my kids and true to scripture.
It gives kids age five to eight (my test group) a big picture sense of why Jesus died and rose again. The Garden, the Curtain, and the Cross is a great book. As far as religious kids' books, I like books that tell the old, old story well in a way that is both age appropriate and compelling. I am a father of four kids eight and under.
