ECPA BESTSELLER • A delightful illustrated picture book for readers ages 3 and up, God Gave Us Easter features the adorable polar bear Little Cub, talking with her father and learning about God's design for the Easter season and what it really means.

"God loved us so much he wanted us to always be with him too. That’s why God knew he’d need to give us Easter.” 

As Little Cub celebrates Easter with Papa, Mama, and her brother and sister, she begins to ask her papa questions about this very special day of the year.  Papa lovingly explains God’s plans for his children, while taking Little Cub on a memorable walk through her stunning Arctic world, and he shares how Easter came about in clear, simple terms that even the littlest cubs can understand.

4 stars and great gift book.

My Thoughts...

These 45 stories are all very short and fast reads you could read a few each night and talk about them. Each story is easy to understand and fun pictures on each page.
Wonderful for the kids who are learning about the Bible stories in Sunday school.
This was a fun book and would make a great gift.

My Thoughts...

Are you a fan of Max Lucados Children's books?  If you said YES, Then you are going to like this one.

It's very easy to understand and short enough for the little ones to sit though it. 

Great message and the illustrations are done very well.

I might add that instead of toys under the tree this year, books like this one will have a lasting positive  effect on kids.

This was a very cute read. 

Love the family God gave you. Great message.

I gave this book 5 stars.
