The Invitation

by Mary Allen, Susan Thompson (Illustrator)

“The Invitation” is taken from Luke 18 verses 15 through 27 and Mark 10 verses 13 through 27. It explains the interaction between the rich, young ruler and Jesus as well as what that exchange means for every individual today. Aimed at children of 6-8 years, the beautiful illustrations will appeal to even younger children.
