The Tale of Gingerbread
Bear (A Book Review) This bear has to decide whether she's going to pursue her creative activities and risk failure...but it requires her willingness to receive the truthful criticism and encouragement from caring friends. It's easier to stay in a comfortable place even if we're not really happy there rather than risk stepping out into the unknown. So often we reject truth because it may cost us too much to receive it. And yet when we are willing to receive, we're set free from the bondage of lies. The author, the mysterious Aunt Mugg, has cooked up another great tale. The Tale of Ginger bread Bear is full of lovable characters, superbly illustrated, and is just like reading a parable of the Bible to rhyme. This story hour parable comes from a Scriptural base. In fact, those portions of the story that derive directly from sound, sage Scriptural principles are each cited and then referenced, in their entirety, in the back. What a wonderful way to teach God's principles to children. I look forward to more books of this quality and craftmanship. Sells for $15.95 |
