Description

Share the glory of the cross with kids by reading this storybook together, and then using the 15-door Easter calendar and included family devotional in the run-up to Easter. 4 coloring books make it easy for multiple children to engage with the story.

The beautiful hardback Bible storybook for 3+ year olds takes children on a journey from the Garden of Eden to God’s perfect new creation. It is a gospel presentation that focuses on the significance of the temple curtain. God said “because of your sin you can’t come in”, but the moment the curtain tore in two, everything changed. Children will learn why Jesus died and rose again and why that’s the best news ever.

The Easter calendar is an innovative resource for counting down to Easter Sunday. It comes with two weeks of Easter family devotions based on the passages used in The Garden, The Curtain and The Cross Storybook.

Likewise, the 32 page coloring book for kids ages 5+ will help kids interact with the story and concepts. Gift the 4 copies of the coloring book to each of your kids, or to family or church friends! A useful homeschool resource.

Endorsement written for The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross Storybook

Faithful, theologically rich children's books are a rare treat in Christian publishing. Laferton has provided us one of the best little treatments of biblical theology available for parents to read to their children. The Garden, the Curtain, and the Cross not only teaches children stories in the Bible but the story of the Bible - one that culminates in the atoning work of Jesus Christ who gives broken sinners access to God. This book is a tremendous resource for parents and children who want to better understand the grand storyline of Scripture.

My grandchildren loved this book—and so did I. Both the pictures and the words have made the Bible's story of redemption clear and beautiful. This is a book that invites us in.

Endorsement written for The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross Storybook

I am so excited about this book! It is colorful, engaging, and creative, and that's just the icing on the cake! Our children receive invitations to participate in many different stories—stories of who they are, their purpose, and what God is like. The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross is a brilliant re-telling of the one story that rules all other stories. I cannot commend this book highly enough. Read it to your children, give it to your neighbours, and talk about what it means to live in light of the fact that the curtain has been torn.

"Exceptional"

Catherine Brooks, Mum in Zone One, Feb. 1, 2016

Endorsement written for The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross Storybook

I think Carl Laferton has done an exceptional job of simplifying an essential truth which could easily come across as very complicated … He makes articulating doctrine seem like child’s play.... continue reading

“Excellent in every way”

(Review written for 'The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross Storybook')

I read this book to children of different ages and cultures. They were all captivated and engaged by the combination of the storyline and the illustrations. The revealing of the truth about the tearing of the curtain was delightful to see in the children's eyes.

“Awesome!”

(Review written for 'The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross Storybook')

While The Garden, The Curtain and The Cross is a children's book, all ages can learn from the spiritual connections it makes between the Old and New Testaments. Carl Laferton has become my favorite author of Children's books.

“Great images for a read-a-loud”

(Review written for 'The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross Storybook')

These images were amazing. I used them for a read-a-loud with a large number of kids. I read from the book and they see the images on a screen. It works wonderfully!!

“Beautiful and Biblical”

(Review written for 'The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross Storybook')

This is one of my highest-recommended children's books! We bulk-ordered it and passed them out to all the kids at our church on Easter Sunday! A comprehensive Biblical look at the whole Gospel in terms children can understand and adults can enjoy.

“Great resource for Easter”

(Review written for 'The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross Easter Calendar')

We used this in collaboration with and Easter event we held for families at our church. Families were given this outside of the event but then at the event, the story was read and a storyboard craft was created by all families attending. The partnership of both pieces allowed us to have a united Lent discipleship moment for our families!
