In Snatched Up to Heaven for Kids Jemima Paul and Arvind Paul portrayed the Christian beliefs about Jesus, Heaven, and hell. This book is about two sisters Emma and Bella who reside with their parents in a nice home that values God. Mommy and Daddy read them the Bible each night before they go to sleep so they will understand how much God loves them and how they also love him back. Emma once had a dream about God and Heaven, and when she awoke, she was so excited that she wanted to tell her family about it. What did she dream of? Will her parents be impressed and give attention to her dream?

I liked how enthusiastically Emma described her nightly visits. Her younger sister's enthusiasm to join and openness to the narrative highlighted how effectively some kids adapt to both learning and experience. I also enjoyed that instead of brushing her dreams off as just a child's fantasy, their parents took the time to explain what they meant to both of their children. They also compared Emma's account with biblical passages to serve as a type of formal confirmation.


This book has seven different chapters with beautiful illustrations amazing which is suitable for a bedtime story. The write-up language is very easy and insightful for young children. The writer also talks about Esther and Noah which give children an idea about them also. Adults can get information while reading stories because some verses of the Bible are explained easily to understand.

Overall I like the book but I discovered a discrepancy between one of the images and the written material. Some people may not agree with how hell is portrayed in the book as it is a kid's book. Even Emma emphasised how horrified she was by what she saw in her dream. Despite not being that gory, several pictures did convey a dreadful aspect. Additionally, the fact that this book is mostly oriented on Christianity and doesn't fully accommodate others who may hold different views should be taken into account while making your decision.

I want to award Snatched Up to Heaven for Kids 4 out of 4 and 5 out of 5 because, in my point of view, the illustration of the Christian religion is so perfect for kids. Any kid can understand, see heaven by the book, remind god’s word and their faith. It will be a highly recommended book for toddlers of Christian families. I really love to read the book with my daughter and she really loves the pictures. There is no typo in the book and seems it is professionally edited and proofread.
