Surprisingly good. I'm not sure it's 100% Biblically accurate, but it's close enough, at least on key elements. It simplifies the good news of Jesus for young ones, but it avoids explaining the reason for the good news, as does most other children's books. The illustrations are cute and somewhat thoughtful.
