Review

The Story of Easter is beautifully illustrated book that is warm and embraces us with love. The book simply shares the story of Easter adapted for the younger reader. It highlights his death, when he rose again and the significance on why we celebrate it. I loved the representation of the different people in the book. Overall, it presents everything is a way that the young reader will understand and enjoy.
