Review: "Jesus"


            Devon and Jessica Robyn Provencher have written and illustrated board books to introduce theology to children up to age three (or maybe a little older).

One book is titled Jesus.

Using colorful pictures (there are pictures of Jesus for those who have scruples) and succinct text, the child is introduced to Who Jesus is and what He did.

Jesus is Deity. Jesus in the Incarnation. Jesus is King. Jesus is the Son of God. Jesus is our Rescuer. Jesus is Sinless. Jesus is a Prophet. Jesus is a Priest. Jesus made Atonement. Resurrection.

After each word is highlighted with a two-page picture, there is a sentence explanation, beginning to fill out what exactly is being taught.

This is a wonderful series. Orthodox and well-worded. This is a very approachable way to introduce theology to very young children.

I have a niece who is turning three in August, and I have bought a set of books for her.
