As I earlier stated, this is a very attractive book that immediately draws the reader in due to the soft pastel colors and illustrations.

Furthermore, this book will help parents set the foundation for their children to know God and form a relationship with Him.

Summary

In summary, this book (God’s word to dream on) is a great resource for anyone wanting to introduce children to God at an early age.

I had a similar book as a young child and I enjoyed reading it so much! Who knows if that’s what birthed the desire to know God in me.

One thing is certain, Proverbs 22:6 is clear;

6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” (KJV)

As parents, grandparents, aunts, or uncles, don’t wait until a child is too old to begin teaching them the ways of the Lord.

This is the real reason why I don’t neglect reviewing children’s books because I want you my esteemed readers to teach God’s words to your children as well.

I picked up this book one midnight when I had trouble sleeping. And couldn’t close my eyes till daybreak because I was enthralled.

It was scary, suspense-filled, heartbreaking, and interesting all at the same time.

If He Had Not Come

The book titled If He Had Not Come is a children’s storybook about the essence of Christmas. And although it’s a Christmas story, it’s a story that is relevant all year round. Because the story of salvation is not seasonal, it’s always timely and relevant. In the book, a boy named Bobby slept and dreamt that there was no Christmas…
