The River of Hope

Children will love this Christian picture book about the story of Jesus. It has colourful illustrations and most of them are painted by hand to remind the reader that God is an awesome creator. The simple text allows beginning readers to practice their reading skills within a Christian context. It includes the prophecy of Ezekiel to add to the well known story of Jesus' death and resurrection. Children can further imagine the hope and beauty of eternal life in heaven and get to know a prophecy book of the Bible that is is not read as often. It provides caregivers and teachers a way to discuss God's redemptive plan within a devotional setting. I
