“This sweet and relatable story will help little hearts and minds connect the truth of God’s word with our tendency toward wanting our own way or believing we need to earn God’s love. What a wonderful way to remind both children and parents alike of the never-ending love of the Father.”
“Charlie and the Preschool Prodigal retells one of Jesus’s best-known parables in a way that allows children to relate with both the prodigal son and his brother. With whimsically detailed illustrations, Charlie relays the stories of both the boy who ran away and the older brother with a prideful heart. What a wonderful addition to any Christian family’s bookshelf!”
“Ginger Blomberg’s sweet and creative retelling of the story of the prodigal son made me laugh out loud—and convicted me. I am more like Charlie than I would like to admit, and I’m so thankful for my heavenly Father who loves me. Enjoy God’s mercy and grace afresh through this book!”
“One of the great challenges of Bible teaching is making the stories feel as fresh and convicting as they did in Jesus’s day. That’s all the more difficult when children lack the historical background of the biblical world. Ginger Blomberg brings perhaps Jesus’s most famous parable into our world where children can begin to grasp the revolutionary implications of grace.”
“The Father who runs out to both sons. The Father who delights in the younger and the older, the wild and the tidy, each and every one of us. I’m so thankful Ginger Blomberg has written this story so that even the youngest sons and daughters can begin to understand the unmerited and lavish love of the Father.”
