A very well written children's book about one little boy, while sick in the hospital, closed his eyes and had a wonderful experience by going to heaven. I appreciate the format of the book. Glad there were scriptures used for each detail given. This is a book I will use with my youngest grandson as we discuss the topic of heaven. The questions at the back of the book was a nice touch.I thought I had gotten from the public overdrive the adult version of this book, but now know there was a purpose for the mishap. Recommend to all children, especially the youngest ones full of questions about life and death. This review of Heaven is For Real for Kids by Todd & Sonja Burpo is LONG overdue but I still wanted to share it because of the impact the story has had on my life. So here we go!Have you ever wondered what Heaven is like? Will you really see those you have lost? Colton Burpo had the trip of a lifetime when he was just a boy. His parents share Colton’s experiences in this kid-friendly book about going up to Heaven. With beautiful illustrations and real questions about Heaven, Colton shares all he encounters and more in this powerful book.I love that there is a kids’ version of this powerful and hopeful story. I can only imagine what it must have been like for Colton to go up into Heaven and have the most interesting conversations with God and those in Heaven. As someone who volunteers with Kids’ ministries, I love books that are broken down for kids to understand. The pictures are so helpful and the story is one that everyone should hear. There are so many people that have questions about Heaven and the after life. The Bible is not always clear about specifics but getting a first hand account is so precious.I definitely recommend this book for families. Every one should read this story and experience hope. Rating: 4/5.I received this book for free from BookLook Bloggers but was not required to write a positive review.
