Review: The "Little Me, Big God" series of books (manuscript)

 

            The “Little Me, Big God” series of children’s books from the Good Book Company contains three volumes (thus far):  The Man Who Would Not Be Quiet!, Never Too Little!, and The Best Thing to Do!  All three are written by Steph Williams. These sturdy paperbacks are just right for beginning readers or for reading to even younger children.  These three books will go to my two-year-old niece for Christmas.  (Don’t tell her!)

            Each page of the book has colorful pictures and short sentences – one or two sentences per page.  At the end of the book, there is a section of “notes for grown-ups” to help grown-ups explain what the story means and how to respond to it.  Also included is the biblical text from the NIV version – which would be good to read to the child, as well as the book to encourage recognition of the Scripture and to encourage learning to hear and understand it.

The Man Who Would Not Be Quiet! Is a telling of the story of Blind Bartimaeus. The child learns that there are some things – such as Jesus being the Savior – that are worth shouting about.

Never Too Little! Is a telling of the children coming to Jesus.  The child learns that he or she is not too little to come to Jesus and ask for His salvation.

The Best Thing to Do! Is a telling of the story of Mary and Martha.  The child learns that the best thing to do is to listen to Jesus.

This are a great series of books, and I encourage you to buy them and give them to the little ones in your family.  Who knows, their parents may come to Jesus through reading to their children.
