Zacchaeus was very short, very rich, and not very happy, but his encounter with Jesus changed everything.
In response to the grace Jesus showed him, Zacchaeus was transformed from the inside out. He repented, treasured Jesus above everything else, and showed kindness and generosity to others like never before.
Use this story to teach children that only following Jesus will make them truly happy and fulfilled, and that genuine repentance and faith is demonstrated by loving ...others.

We have now purchased 6 books in this series. Our 4 year old is really engaging with his ‘Jesus books’ and it has been a great way of beginning to teach him basic truths about the Bible.

We recently used this book, along with the downloaded pictures with our midweek children's group (ages 4-11). The children were fully engaged with the story which is written and presented in a way that held their attention from beginning to end. As with all this series, the truths are clear and applied well to the children's everyday lives, leading naturally into follow up teaching.

I love how this book shows how Jesus can change a life. Also the plan of salvation is clear AND I love that they include the reason Jesus was going through Jericho, to go die for us. Profound ideas in words a child can understand.
