This is such a great overview that touches on all the things, even resurrected Christs visit to the americas

This is a lovely telling of the Easter story.

I appreciate the tie in to the Book of Mormon at the end.

The title “My First” usually accompanies baby and toddler books, but this is appropriate for ages 4 and up.

It is in our Easter box to read each Easter season.

Nice simply written story of Christ's last week, crucifixion, resurrection and why Christians celebrate Easter.

I always wonder why illustrations about Christ's life show European looking people!
