This is a great read for children. It provides a short but soft and potent introduction to the concepts of God, Jesus, heaven, and hell in a way that is creative and easy enough for children to understand. The addition of illustrations also serves to capture and hold the attention of the target audience.

The story follows eight-year-old Emma on her adventures as she dreams. She is the oldest of three girls, living comfortably with her mother and father. She dreams of her and her younger sister, Bella, being carried up to heaven by angels. On getting to heaven, Jesus shows her different wonderful things about heaven. She is also shown hell and sees the suffering that goes on there.

After each dream, she narrates her experience to her mother, father, and younger sister. Her parents don’t dismiss her dreams but rather encourage her by corroborating her experiences with references from the Bible, helping her understand the importance of her dreams. Eventually, she decides to spread the good news of heaven and the horrors of hell to everyone around her to save more people.

The plot of the book was interesting. It uses an ingenious story to educate children on the subject matter. The language is also simple, making it very easy for children to understand. I enjoyed the fact that it portrayed the importance and impact of proper guidance when navigating such matters, as we saw the parents help Emma better understand her dreams and the implications of her gift. I must also commend the editing of the book, as there were no grammar mistakes found.

In summary, this book was short but highly impactful, and I would certainly recommend it to parents who are looking for a way to introduce the concept of Christianity to their children. It was worth the read.
