God Gave Us Heaven

This is the first of three children’s books I had the wonderful opportunity to review! The other reviews will be posted over the next few days! Let me just say that I have not seen many books that have such beautiful illustrations that highlight the amazing story behind them! God Gave Us Heaven is a fun story that allows us to journey through some concepts about heaven that Children often think about but can be difficult to explain. This is done beautifully and peacefully and I really appreciated that about this book. Here’s more information about the book, author and illustrator!

It is time to play a Wild Card! Every now and then, a book that I have chosen to read is going to pop up as a FIRST Wild Card Tour. Get dealt into the game! (Just click the button!) Wild Card Tours feature an author and his/her book’s FIRST chapter!

You never know when I might play a wild card on you!
