Grandma Peggy’s Love Thy Neighbor is a coloring e-book for ages 7 and up, offered as a heartwarming exploration of biblical tales, colorable sketches, bible verses, encouragements, and timeless classes.
Every story consists of a brief narrative with a drawing or two, plus a related scripture. The 8.5 × 11 inch dimension is normal for a lot of coloring books, and the 70 pages gives numerous coloring choices and tales. The hand-drawn illustrations are well-done, and suited to younger readers. It additionally contains little encouraging notes from Grandma Peggy, resembling:
“How are you getting on with the coloring? Your pens nonetheless going sturdy? So, we’ve checked out some examples from the Bible educating us about kindness and respect after which we moved onto the values of religion and braveness.” (p57)
The tales are principally from the Bible, interspersed with feedback or explanations for Grandma Peggy. For instance, there are retellings of the Good Samaritan parable, Ruth and Boaz, and Jonah and the whale. Sometimes, Grandma Peggy tells a narrative from her personal life, giving some modern-day examples of the themes and classes.
A superb instance is the story of Goliath. It begins with a title web page, “It’s not by the sword or spear that God saves,” with scripted textual content and coloring designs across the web page. The subsequent web page is a passage from 1 Samuel. 17.47: “All these gathered right here will know that it’s not by the sword or spear that the Lord saves; for the battle is the Lord’s, and he’ll give all of you into our arms.” A brief retelling of the story of David and Goliath follows.
One other begins by telling the story of Joseph and his brothers, ending with a drawing of Joseph’s “many-colored coat.” (A fantastic concept for coloring!)
Some youngsters might work by means of this e-book on their very own, however a mother or father and baby may additionally learn the tales collectively or the mother or father might learn, after which the kid shade the accompanying drawings.
I want this had been accessible when my youngsters have been younger, I might have appreciated such am exercise e-book. In contrast to many who merely inform a narrative (or simply the photographs), this e-book engages the thoughts in addition to enjoyable coloring exercise with its pleasant tales rooted in biblical rules.
