AWESOME BIBLE VERSES EVERY KID SHOULD KNOW: And What They Mean

Harvest House, 978-0-7369-3938-6, PB, 112 pages, $9.99
Have you ever been confronted with a hard question by a child and not known how to answer it in words he or she would understand? In this easy-to-use text, Lutzer addresses such questions and answers with kid-appropriate real life applications. Topics covered include sin, friendship, temptations, death, the second coming of Christ, tithing, church attendance, witnessing, and respect for parents.

The book’s entire content is aimed at young children. The artwork is colorful and flamboyant, the vocabulary is on an elementary school level, and the examples relate to homework, sports, games, television, families, toys, vacations, and music. Lutzer has written previous books for youngsters. She knows how to get her point across to the younger generation.  Obviously, the book is solid on religious training, but it is also a helpful training tool for developing readers.
