I've been a huge fan of Steph Williams' Little Me, Big God series of books since there were only three such stories. Every time Steph Williams comes out with a new book, I preorder it. So, I preordered this one too,
When my oldest was 2 or 3, I was looking for a way to do devotions with her. I've found this book series to be a great way to share scripture with my kids. Ms. Williams' stories stick close to the Bible passage she derives them from. She does a great job of bringing the story to the level of young children, while keeping the central point of the passage prominent. And the pictures and the text of the books, make it easy to read to your little ones with a lot of emotion.
Two of my kids are legally blind, and so I was particularly struck by her story of Bartimaeus. I love how her story speaks to all ages that Bartimaeus' loud cry to Jesus should be each of our response to him once we realize our own need and who Jesus is.
Each of her stories has a Bible passage at the end. This is the best part. I read the Bible passage too--even for my kids as young as 2 and 3. If you read them often enough--and with feeling--don't be surprised if they memorize even the scripture passage. My oldest did that at 3 or 4 years old.
One of the advantages of this book series is that the books are compact, which is great for travelling.
The individual books are pretty sturdy (for paper), but they do get beat up with use. (At one point we were reading them every day.) So, I'm so excited that they put 8 of her stories into this single hardbound book! It still keeps its lower profile for travel, but I expect it'll last a little longer than the individual books do.
So, if you have little kids or if you want to encourage parents of little kids to have devotions with them, buy this book.
