How do you teach an almost 2-year-old about Jesus? A little book I bought recently called Tell Me About Jesus is a great start. I love reading this book to Annalise. The pictures hold her attention so well, and the words are so simple and engaging, I have the feeling it must have been read to the author’s own children many times to get every word just right.
My favorite page is the one with the mirror, that asks, “Who does Jesus love?” How sweet, fun, and wonderful to give my daughter the answer: “Annalise!”
You can order Tell Me About Jesus from Christian Light Publications.
If your child is past toddler age, you might want to order Tell Me the Stories of Jesus, also written by Caleb Crider and illustrated by Alex Brover. We will probably want to buy this book for Annalise when she gets a little older. Incidentally, Alex Brover is the artist for my children’s book, The Arrowhead. I think his fine oil paintings bring life and emotion to the stories of Jesus in a wonderful way.
You can order Tell Me the Stories of Jesus from Christian Light Publications or from Amazon.
Yes! These are wonderful books! My 2 year old has loved the book for older children for awhile now. You might want to start on it sooner than you think!
