Imagine Jesus taking you up to heaven when you go to sleep. That is what happens in Snatched Up to Heaven! by Arvind and Jemima Paul. Jemima’s eldest daughter (Priyanka) goes to her one day and tells her about something marvelous that happened when she fell asleep. She tells her that Jesus took her and her younger sister Deepika to heaven.

The nature of Priyanka and Deepika’s testimonies astounds their parents because both children were very young at the time (Priyanka was four years old and Deepika was only two years old). The children gave detailed descriptions of what they saw when they visited heaven and hell. Snatched Up to Heaven is a compilation of what the children saw and experienced.

Snatched Up to Heaven! is a quick read. The book is only 104 pages long. The book contains two sections that each have ten chapters. The first section is about the children’s visions of heaven. The second section is about their visions of hell.

I appreciate that the authors gave their interpretations of the children’s visions at the end of each chapter. It gave me a better understanding of the visions. I also like that they shared Bible verses for readers to use as sources of reference for their interpretations.

I know that some readers may have a hard time believing the credibility of this book and the visions in general. However, Jemima Paul recorded the testimonies in a written journal and video logs. Towards the end of the book, there is an appendix section that contains links to the YouTube videos of Priyanka’s testimonies. This section (coupled with the book's content and biblical reference) should be sufficient in settling any doubts readers may have.

In summary, I will be giving Snatched Up to Heaven! an overall rating of 5 out of 5 stars. I enjoyed reading the book. I did not find anything that would warrant a star deduction. Snatched Up to Heaven! is professionally edited. I did not come across any errors whatsoever while reading.

Snatched Up to Heaven! is perfect for Christian readers. Especially for people who may be struggling with their faith or those who want to strengthen it. This book also has a kid's version that parents can get their children if they want them to learn more about heaven and hell. I would not recommend Snatched Up to Heaven! to non-Christian readers because they may not relate to its content.

The heavenly imagery in this book was so vivid that it felt like I was transported into the protagonist's journey. It is a perfect read for Christians and parents that want Godly children.
