About the Book
The Ultimate Who, What, When, Where and Why Book containing seven sections about God‘s Son:
* Who Jesus Is
* What Jesus Did
* What Jesus Taught
* When It Happened
* Why It Happened
* How It Happened
On pages 50 - 53, you will find a time-line of Jesus’ life in the section titled, “When It Happened”. The time-line begins with Genesis 1:1 and carries us to John 14:2-3. (Promise of Jesus’ Return)
“Where it Happened” shares maps of various places that Jesus’ lived or traveled. You can learn where Jesus was born, where did Jesus grow up and what body of water Jesus called his disciples from and many more from Israel and Jerusalem.
The 30-Song CD sung by the Wonder Kids share many all-time favorites such as “Jesus Loves Me”, “Fairest Lord Jesus”, “What a Friend We Have in Jesus”, and many more songs that children will love to sing time and time again.
My Thoughts
The Jesus Book is a wonderfully illustrated and educational book to share with you children or grandchildren. The accompanying CD sung by the Wonder Kids is an awesome bonus to make learning more about Jesus come alive and more fun. I rate this book 5 stars.
I review for Thomas Nelson Book Review Bloggers, and you could too.
