Description
Let Antonia Woodward's beautiful retelling take young children aged 3 to 5 years back to the heart of the very first Easter.
Jesus made sick people well, made food for thousands, and cared for the lonely and the needy.
He was like no one else, and the people believed the Promised One—God-on-earth—had arrived. Others were not so sure. But God always has a plan.
This is the story of God's plan, and how Jesus came for everyone, everywhere, for all time.
This colourful and softly illustrated picture book is a perfect bedtime book for reading during Easter or for sharing with a group of children from Palm Sunday to Ascension.
