Jesus and the Very Big Surprise Hardcover – Picture Book, February 1, 2020

The Tales that Tell the Truth books are my absolute favorites to read to my daughter. My daughter is three and she LOVES these books—she requests at least one of them daily. The artwork in these books are beautifully done and each story is made simple enough for small children to gain understanding of deep ideas.We loved this book specifically because of the simple way Jesus is explained and his return is explained. The writing is so well done, emphasizing everything that should be and written in a well-flowing memorable way. Love the repetition that is included on the important parts. It sticks in my daughters head and she can recite parts of the book by memory! It’s so attention grabbing, catchy, and fun to read!These will be books we keep forever.

Our family is familiar with Mr. Goodgame's ministry through Slugs and Bugs so my children were very excited to read a book written by one of their favorite people.We have several books from the Tales That Tell the Truth series and are excited to add this lovely parable.The truth of this book is astounding. The God of the universe, the One Who humbled Himself to come in human form, is the great Master who makes Himself a servant to those who serve him. The essence of the Gospel is captured in this simple parable with fun and whimsical illustrations that captured the attention of even my youngest reader. Truly a wonderful addition to any child's library where the truths of God's amazing love for His people is important as a theme.

This and ten other books like it of other topics will be a Christmas gift for a seven year old. Will wait till he gets it and see before I can issue an accurate review. Just because I like it does not mean he will. We will see.

These books are my kids favorite. A great way to spark conversation about Jesus. We are slowly buying the whole collection.

He surprised me with a big birthday cake on my 50th.

This is a great book

I love all of these “tales that tell the truth” books. Some are better then others, but I want to own them all for my children. The illustrations are so adorable & the stories are bible truths presented in a tangible way for little people to treasure. I hope the authors keep making more!

These are the greatest set of books ever. The writers and illustrators have a way of writing a drawing for children to understand! I’d highly recommend them to anyone!
