Editorial Reviews

In Lily, the Lemur and the Lamb King: The Me Tree and Other Adventures, Bob Hartman offers whimsical stories featuring endearing characters whose escapades sneak past our defenses, capture our imagination, and lead us to delight in the Lord. With delicious surprise, I realized I was worshiping as I was reading. In a sense, these engaging stories grab children (and adults) by the hand, and say with excitement, ‘Come with me, and I’ll show you something wonderful!’ I highly commend this lighthearted yet gloriously rich collection of stories to you and your family. You’ll love it! -- Caroline Saunders (Author, The Story of Water and The Story of Home)

Bob Hartman has done it again. The adventures of Lily, the Lemur and the Lamb King will delight both children and parents in their creative reimagining of stories from the Gospels. Bob is a great storyteller, but the beauty of this book is that it will introduce children to the greatest Storyteller of them all—Jesus. -- Justin Brierley (Author and host of The Surprising Rebirth Of Belief In God.)

Another fantastic Bob Hartman book! Lily, the Lemur and the Lamb King is a storybook full of joy. It’s cleverly knitted together with kingdom principles and biblical themes, along with a healthy dose of comedy and playfulness. This is the perfect way to share the gospel and to start conversations about Jesus. Highly recommended! -- Joanna Adeyinka-Burford (TV Presenter and Author)

Another quirky storybook from Bob, with the bouncy rhythm of the text that makes for great storytelling. This unusual take on the kingdom of God is full of fun but with moments of poignancy and plenty of space left for questioning imaginations. -- Lucy Moore (Head, Growing Faith Foundation)
