Beautiful depiction of Holy WeekMar 19, 2001
We use this book in our church school classes, mostly because of the way it depicts the events of Holy Week. The illustrations often take a panoramic perspective, giving the sense of the crowds in Jerusalem during the Passover. The story is told from the point of view of the little donkey that Jesus rode into the city on. This is somewhat distracting but the wonderful illustrations make this much more of a discussion than a read story. There are some illustrations that are not quite true to Jerusalem at the time of Jesus - the trial before Pilot is held in a strange amphitheater setting, but the view of the Last Supper is right on target. The best part about the book is the way the angels (in all their glory) watch over the events. For young children the ideas of the crucifixtion are particularly alarming. Here the sky is filled with angels that remind us that Jesus was never abandon during this horrible time. The scene at the Tomb gives an interesting interpretation of all the gospel versions with angels sitting atop the tombstone, hovering aloft and waiting inside. This book does a wonderful job of supporting discussion and deepening mediation.

Simply BeautifulApr 07, 2000
I am so glad that I purchased this book for my children! The story is written in a very simple and straightforward way which is easy for children to understand. This book could be a very useful tool in opening up biblical discussions for the whole family. The illustration is beautiful and captivating.

Simply the BEST version of the Easter story for children.Apr 05, 2004
By J. Kitchen
"byrobaby"
I originally checked this book out from the library for my son last Easter. My husband and I were so impressed we bought it this year for him as a gift. The illustrations positively glow. And, the story line is captivating and easy to follow, unlike other children's versions I've read. It's a beautiful book that my two year-old will continue to enjoy for many Easters to come.

Magnificent illustrations!Mar 23, 2005
By Thomas F. Cartmel
"Tom C"
My almost 6 year old son was asking a lot of questions about Easter from what he has learned in Sunday School. I was looking for an Easter book which explained Easter, and the events leading up to Easter, in a simple, yet Biblical way. The book is not too simplistic, nor too complex and wordy. Also, the illustrations are magnificent, and are worth the price of the book alone.

beautiful!Apr 26, 2000
By Suzanne E Greydanus
We bought this book because my daughter became very upset at the thought of having to return it to the library! The illustrations are beautiful and the story is an excellent adaptation of the Bibilical story of Easter - beginning with the Triumphal entry and going on to Jesus' ascension.
