Teach The Real Meaning of EasterWithin our culture, Easter is marked with Easter Baskets, Egg Hunts, and the Easter Bunny—which does not explain the true meaning of Easter。Author Patricia A。 Pingry begins her book talking about spring, then going to church and hearing a Bible story about Jesus。 In the Bible story, the adults and children celebrated Jesus with palm branches, and some people who didn’t like Jesus, put Jesus on a cross to die but then he rose from the grave and the author writes, “ Teach The Real Meaning of EasterWithin our culture, Easter is marked with Easter Baskets, Egg Hunts, and the Easter Bunny—which does not explain the true meaning of Easter。Author Patricia A。 Pingry begins her book talking about spring, then going to church and hearing a Bible story about Jesus。 In the Bible story, the adults and children celebrated Jesus with palm branches, and some people who didn’t like Jesus, put Jesus on a cross to die but then he rose from the grave and the author writes, “We celebrate Easter, because Jesus lived again on that first Easter morning。” The final pages return to the present and help children celebrate our love of Jesus。Whether you read this story at Easter or any other time of year, THE STORY OF EASTER celebrates and teaches the real meaning of the holiday。 I love the writing combined with the illustrations from Alice Buckingham。 I recommend this board book。W。 Terry Whalin is an editor and the author of more than 60 books including his recent 10 Publishing Myths, Insights Every Author Needs to Succeed。 。。。more

This board book presents the story of Easter in simple words and illustrations。 Little ones will hear the story of Jesus。 That He died, rose from the grave, and all the wondrous things He did for us。The illustrations are bright and colorful and the board book can be easily held with little hands。Recommended for babies and preschoolers。

This is a picture board book that tells the story of Jesus Christ being crucified and risen again, which is the reason Christians celebrate the Easter holiday。 Writing and describing Easter to young children around the toddler age (and even the below pre-teen ages) is a hard concept for many, especially having to talk about Christ's death, but the author here does a good job in telling the story for the age level audience。For an in-depth review, visit my blog at: https://lancewrites。wordpress。co This is a picture board book that tells the story of Jesus Christ being crucified and risen again, which is the reason Christians celebrate the Easter holiday。 Writing and describing Easter to young children around the toddler age (and even the below pre-teen ages) is a hard concept for many, especially having to talk about Christ's death, but the author here does a good job in telling the story for the age level audience。For an in-depth review, visit my blog at: https://lancewrites。wordpress。com/202。。。 。。。more

This little childrens book brings the story of Jesus death and resurrection。 The main themes are skimmed and it just touches the surface of why we worship Jesus。 I think it is a great book for a child's very first understanding of Christ and Easter。 This little childrens book brings the story of Jesus death and resurrection。 The main themes are skimmed and it just touches the surface of why we worship Jesus。 I think it is a great book for a child's very first understanding of Christ and Easter。 。。。more

We used to own this book, but found it nothing exceptional。 The board book format is durable for young ones and the story line simple, but surely, we can do better with the greatest story ever told?We like Wildsmith's "The Easter Story" better, though you can see my review for what I consider to be strengths and weaknesses of that work。 We used to own this book, but found it nothing exceptional。 The board book format is durable for young ones and the story line simple, but surely, we can do better with the greatest story ever told?We like Wildsmith's "The Easter Story" better, though you can see my review for what I consider to be strengths and weaknesses of that work。 。。。more

Not bad for a telling of the Easter Story in a board book - but I needed to add a little more explanation from the Bible。
