The book Snatched Up to Heaven! by Jemima Paul and Arvind Paul is a compilation of the experiences their daughters Priyanka and Deepika had when they were younger. Through the book, Jemima and Arvind Paul describe the dreams and visions of heaven and hell that the two young girls described to them. The authors use scripture from the Bible to explain and prove that their two young daughters experienced these visions.

Priyanka and Deepika experienced heaven only in a way that could be explained as a vision because of the details the two girls were able to share. So many of the descriptions they told their parents aligned with scripture in such a way that young children could not possibly fathom.

I enjoyed the fact that the authors included so much scripture from the Bible to explain exactly what heaven will be like. This book is an encouragement for those who believe that they will go to heaven after death and spend eternity with God.

Imagining heaven may or may not be something many Christians do, but possibly getting an insight into what heaven will be like through the eyes of these two little girls was truly fascinating. Dying is always a scary thought, but the encouragement of heaven-filled love and happiness alongside Jesus and God makes death a lot less scary. I enjoyed the amount of scripture in this book. God truly lays out what heaven and hell will be like directly in the Bible.

The descriptions of hell were quite the opposite, being horribly and scarily written. While reading Priyanka and Deepika’s descriptions of hell, I felt so sad that they had to see and experience what they described. The Bible is also quite clear on what hell will be like for those who end up there.

I gave this book 5 out of 5 stars because I enjoyed the simplicity with which the author explained their daughters’ dreams without elaborating on or adding to them. In addition, after the descriptions, the author did a wonderful job of breaking down each part of the dream and explaining how it possibly aligned with scripture. I also liked that the authors included links to videos of their daughters telling exactly what they saw in their dreams and visions. In addition, I also appreciated the inclusion of the drawings that Priyanka and Deepika made of heaven and hell. 

I found nothing that I would change about this book because it is simply the authors sharing their children’s experiences and tying them into Biblical scripture. I found it to be a short, enjoyable read. The book was also very well edited, and I found almost no errors.

I would recommend Snatched Up to Heaven! by Jemima Paul and Arvind Paul to Christians who are interested in seeing a possible glimpse of what heaven and hell will be like. While it is up to the reader to decide whether or not they believe these young girls were indeed snatched up to heaven, it is a fascinating read that includes a tremendous amount of scripture from the Bible that is important to pay attention to.
