Writing a book with a language that is easy for children to comprehend couldn't be more inviting. Thanks for your honest review.

This is a great book for Christian families who want to teach their children Christian values and talk about life after death. As a side note, there is a chapter on Emma dreaming about hell. Thanks for the lovely review.

The quality of the illustrations is, indeed, excellent. And I agree, in principle, that this is a good way to teach kids about the Bible. But it goes too far with the damnation bit. That smacks of dogma rather than empowering them to think for themselves.

I rarely consider the audiobook version of children's books. This sounds like a delightful and encouraging experience. Thank you for your thorough review and recommendation!

I am not a religious person myself even though I was raised in faith, still I believe that matters should be left for church where questions could be answered by knowledgeable people, not a children's book with odd bits and pieces. Congratulations with BOTD anyway!

I’m curious about this children's book, as it offers a wonderful message to inspire many people, not to mention that it comes alongside with language and illustrations that kids will love. I find this kind of book great to read together among family members.

It sounds like an interesting book for Christian kids to read. If the illustrations are like the book cover then they will have a colourful journey ahead of them.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting children's story about a young girl that dreams about taking a trip to Heaven and what to expect when you get there. While it might not be for everyone, it might be worth a second look especially for those with young children. Well done.

The book seems to be a good example for kids to teach them about Christianity, Bible and Christian morals in a simple and easy way. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!
