Get Ready!
Come on an adventure called, “Lent.” It takes place during the forty days leading up to Easter, and is a time to think about the sacrifice and teachings of Jesus. It is an occasion to get ready for Easter.
This very readable book is a great way to explore Lent with young ones. Whether it is the first time observing it, or something that has been done before, this book will add to the Easter season.
There are forty kid friendly entries, one for every day of Lent. Each narrative is attention-grabbing, and there is also a simple prayer that is only a line or two long. Rhyming verse is sprinkled throughout the book, along with lovely pictures that illustrate the different points of the story.
This picture book is written for children, so it is definitely something that little ones will enjoy, as well as, learn what Easter is about. This is a wonderful way to get the entire family involved by gathering together. Then an adult or older child can read an entry out loud. Natural discussion of what things mean will easily follow. These times can be simple, or more involved, as wanted.
This five-star book will be enjoyed by ages four through ten-years old, remembering that the younger ones will need to be read to.
Thank you, Zonderkidz, for providing Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, “ ‘Twas the Season of Lent” by, Glenys Nellist, for the purpose of review. I have not been compensated in any other manner. All opinions expressed are my own, and I was not required, or influenced, to give anything but an honest appraisal.
