Children's book - about a spider who becomes braver because of friends - and God

[Jodelieh Blue · Rating 4 out of 5]

Een boekje dat mijn meiden regelmatig pakken. Even samen lezen is dus snel gedaan.

Het boekje borduurt door op het verhaal van Krummel. In het kort gaat het om een spin die leert dat God hem helpt in zijn angst. Een thema wat bij kinderen zeker aanspreekt en ze handvatten geeft om met hun eigen angst om te gaan.

We usually LOVE Max Lucado's children's books . . . but this book was just odd. God speaks audibly with insects anytime they talk to him? Really? We felt like we were missing something.
