[Following is a volunteer review of "Snatched Up to Heaven for Kids" by Jemima Paul, Arvind Paul.]
"Snatched Up to Heaven for Kids" was my first Christian children's book, and I must honestly say that it surprised me how wonderful this religion is.What I liked most about this book was that it had a childlike, friendly writing style, and there were lots of beautiful, colorful pictures to illustrate it. The general plot was very well written, and you learned a lot about God and the world. What I liked best was that exact words from the Bible were used. I am not a believer myself, but this children's book has changed my view of the world a bit. It showed me that we have to take responsibility for our own actions. This book taught me a lot and was very enlightening and exciting at the same time. I also think that the pictures used in the book express a lot of the written words, and as the biographies of the two authors show, they all put their hearts into this book. You could literally tell that they knew what they were writing, and I liked that the most. I give this book four out of five points in terms of rating. I thought it was excellent, and I definitely recommend it. It is also well written, and as a non-religious person, I think more people should read it. But unfortunately, I didn't like the open ending. You don't know if Emma will continue to dream of heaven or if her sister will be able to see it later. It's also very unrealistic that she dreams exactly what her parents read to her, because that's what happens when you dream—you process new information. Nevertheless, you can clearly see the connection that the children have with their parents to God and that he is important to them. There was also the feeling of a lot of family and love, which is an important factor for me. a book that you should definitely read to your children, but also as an adult.
