[Darrell · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a charming children's book about the paralitic who was lowered through the roof. The artwork is cute. The rhymes are easy to read. But the book also does a fine job of preparing the young reader to adopt the idea that Jesus had to prioritize the situation. The more important need here is that the man had sins to be forgiven. Jesus deals with that need first. it isn't until his opponants take issue with Him that He heals the man's body. And this book takes us to that. Well done.
