The Easter Song

This is a delightful book by Michelle Adams that tells of Christ's resurrection from the point of view of an eyewitness - a sparrow. The book is written in rhyming verse and the illustrations are bright and fun (and even includes pigs which makes Lydia happy). It tells the story of Christ's death and resurrection in simple terms with no embellishments...none are needed of course, but sometimes children's books do so. The little sparrow is excited to share the Good News with all of her friends and once they hear the Good News they immediately run to tell others.

This book is appropriate for children of all ages...and adults too!
