If Jesus Came to My School by April Graney (Author), Yana Kozak (Illustrator)


 Book Description:  In this whimsical tale, a young girl imagines what it would be like if Jesus visited her school as a boy. She would show Jesus around her classroom, introduce her friends and teachers, listen to story time, and eat lunch together! But Jesus wouldn't stop at learning and sitting in class. He'd invite the lonely to join in on games and find a way to love and get along with everyone. Soon the young girl realizes that even though Jesus doesn’t attend her school, he can live through her.  

My Thoughts:  I was so happy to receive this children's book.   Our littles love books about Jesus.

This story is a rhyming verse story about a little girl who loves Jesus and her fellow students at school.  The illustrations are wonderful and vibrant so that little ones can relate to what is going on in the story.

We loved the book and the story.  The only thing is that the little girl in the story doesn't have a name.  So we named her Angelina. Names are important to our littles.  You and your littles can name her what you choose.

It's a great book for young readers or pre readers.  It's hardback and makes a great present.
