How Can They Call it Good?
Anika Lillicrap is one of my favourite Christian writers for children.
Her rhyming words (yes they rhyme AND scan – joy!) flow so beautifully with rich gospel truth. ‘How Can They Call it Good?’ explores what happened over that first Easter weekend, and the significance for us.
‘How Can They Call it Good?’ moves me to tears! It expresses such powerful truth in simple language that younger children can understand. Kezia Hulse’s collage-style illustrations are simple and striking. The whole book looks and reads brilliantly, and deserves a place on every Christian family’s bookshelf for its helpful explanation of what Easter means for us.
