Review of Snatched Up to Heaven!
Since no human has ever visited Heaven, our understanding of it relies on religious texts and personal accounts of divine revelations through dreams and visions. In this book, Jemima Paul's children, Priyanka and Deepika, share their remarkable experience of being taken up to Heaven in a dream. After waking up, they recounted their incredible journey to their parents, who were inspired to write it down and share it with the world.
Heaven is said to be a holy place where God promised to keep the righteous after they die. Jemima Paul compared the daughter’s heavenly experience and description with what is currently available in the Bible, and there seems to be a resemblance.
After reading about how beautiful Heaven is, about the gold-painted buildings, the sumptuous meals, and the joy that these two children experienced while they visited heaven, my urge to visit the place someday has increased.
The children reported in this book about the sumptuous food they ate while in Heaven and how tasty it was. The Bible says in Romans 14:7 that “For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.” If the Bible says there is no eating and drinking in heaven, then comparing the experience here with the content of the Bible shows a disparity. This is the only drawback I have with this book.
The editing of “Snatched Up to Heaven!“ by Jemima Paul and Arvind Paul was expertly done because I didn’t find any single errors while reading through. The authors wanted to remind Christians that there is an afterlife they should all strive towards, and as such, I will give this book a rating of five out of five stars. This will be a good read for Christian children and anyone interested in running the Christian race with fear and trembling.

I loved the fact that the kid's dreams were backed up with biblical verses.
I appreciated the kids' drawing, and the YouTube links added to the book, the smile on Priyanka's face when she narrated about Heaven was heartwarming.
