 Great for emerging readers, but not the best faith trainingMar 29, 2011
By Tanya Dennis

This title is a Level 2 (Reading with help) book in Zonderkidz "I Can Read!" series. It begins with Jesus praying in the garden then re-tells -- with age-appropriate details --the accounts of His arrest, crucifixion, resurrection and assention.
The tone of the book focuses much on Jesus' friends: how they wanted to help Him when He carried the cross, how they cared for His body at the tomb and how happy they were to discover He was alive. The last page includes readers in this friendship by telling them that Jesus is always watching over them and that they will one day meet Him in Heaven. The illustrations by Dennis G. Jones feature a comic-like style that instantly attracts young readers. Bold lines and bright colors typify the expressive characters.
WHAT I LIKE: This book is very attractive. My kids were instantly drawn to it. As with every book in the "I Can Read!" series, this one features the perfect spacing and font size for beginning and emerging readers. The sentences are short. The text includes a combination of familiar words to build confidence and new words to expand vocabulary and reading skills.
WHAT I DISLIKE: This book leaves a lot of questions unanswered. It says "God's son Jesus was working hard" but never says what He was doing or what kind of work engaged Him. It explains that Jesus died and rose from the dead, but never explains why. It tells readers they will someday meet Jesus in Heaven, but doesn't say how or when. I wish the book offered more answers.
The illustrations clearly exhibit great skill, but the style detracts from the text. They inspire more humor than reverence. My kids were far more interested in Jesus' disproportionaly huge hands and feet than in the message behind the story. The drawing of a muscle-bound, beefcake-like angel with flowing blonde curls cracked up my kids. They thought it was hysterical! That's not exactly the desired reaction when reading about the resurrection.
OVERALL: It's okay.
Tanya -- Christian Children's Book Review
 Great for young readers...a wonderful introduction to the story of Christ's resurrectionSep 20, 2010

I completely love the "I Can Read" series presented by ZonderKidz. My girls always feel so accomplished when they are able to read their own books.
What appeals to me most is that even in Level 1 of the I Can Read series...there are plenty of words. Many times books aimed at the beginning reader only contain three word sentences...but the I Can Read series contains sentences that are longer but with easy to read words. Perfect.
Jesus God's Only Son is a wonderful story to share with your children. It describes in a simple, easy to read and easy to understanding structure who Jesus is and what happened to him on the days of cruixcifiction and resurrection. The illustrations are great.
This has become one of the girls' favorite books. The story line gives them plenty of food for thought which has stimulated many conversations on Christ and His resurrection. Jesus, God's Only Son is a wonderful opener to talk about Jesus with my family.
If you have ever wondered how to share the gospel of Christ's resurrection with your children this would be a great book to pick up. Since it is written in simple sentences your child (depending on their age) can read it alone or with you. A younger child would comprehend the wording and the illustrations would give him (or her) a great visual.
