Editorial Reviews

▼▲

"A picture book that in its varied lettering and sharp color contrasts exudes a sense of confidence and vigor."—The Wall Street Journal
STARRED REVIEW
"The narrative itself is as welcoming to explorers as to believers. This title, which melds contemporary visual expression with centuries-old artistic tradition, will be particularly valued for multigenerational shared Bible reading."—Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"Bright colors and patterns draw readers’ attention. . .A starting point for children who are not already familiar with Jesus’ parables."—Kirkus Reviews
