First time using this as a family during Lent. It was such a rich experience. A good read for the children and grown ups alike. I wish the author had one for Advent too.

Our family is reading this book during Lent this year. It is fantastic! One story per day, they are really interesting and have generated a lot of discussion among my children. Highly recommended!
