This Is Easter is another title in the board book series Our Daily Bread for Little Hearts. The square, chunky board book is just right for little hands and would be a great addition to any child’s Easter basket.Written in lyrical rhythm and rhyme, the story begins by telling little ones about Jesus, His followers, His healing powers, and His love for children. The ride into Jerusalem on a donkey sets the stage for the following pages which tell how Jesus died on the cross, then came back to life. The last spread shows a modern-day family worshiping God on Easter Sunday with  text that reads:

This is the day we go to church
to sing a happy song.
This is Easter, filled with joy
that lasts the whole year long. 

So let’s give thanks to God today
for all that he has done.
He let’s us join His family
through Jesus Christ, His son.

Colorful and kid-friendly illustrations by Luke Flowers emphasize the joy of Easter and help communicate to young children that this dramatic story has a happy ending!

I wish all of our blog followers a happy and blessed Easter!
