This is a nonfiction book. I gave it 3 stars. This book is about questions that children might ask you as they grow up. I was not sure how I would like this especially after I started reading it. Some of the answers I wasn’t sure about because I felt it was too much for them to understand. The other ting that threw me was it based a lot on the bible. All the questions were answered by different people which was great because everyone has a different opinion and it gave you a verity. What I didn’t like was most every answer was related to the bible. I am a religionist person but everyone views the bible differently and what I may believe the bible says someone else may view it another way. I was hoping for something just a little different. Most of the people answering the questions where women and they were tough questions which brings me to believe that not all questions were from children.

The thing I liked the best was the follow-up suggestions and the further reading suggestions.

A great faith-based resource for parents and caregivers when, as the title suggests, kids ask some of life’s difficult questions. Highly recommend!
