Grandma How Do You Know God is Real?

Author: Lorita Kelsey Childress
Pages: 32 pages
Genre:  Children's Picture Book
Pages:  32

About the Book

Grandma, how do you know God is real? is about a six-and-a-half-year-old girl named Kendra, who spends a few weeks of her summer vacation with her Grandma.

She awakens one bright and sunny morning and asks her Grandma how does she know God is real? Grandma, takes Kendra on an adventure to show her all the reasons as to why she knows God is real.

My Thoughts
This was a wonderful book.  It came at such an appropriate time.  Two things happened that made this such a special book.  It came in time for my granddaughter's birthday and she had recently been asking questions about God and then asked him into her heart.  This book was a birthday gift to her that I had the pleasure of sharing with her.

I loved the way the author shows the real life ways we can know God is real.  She pointed out that we can now he is real by the world he created and the things he provides for us. It shows an innocent child's curiosity about God and a seasoned believer's ability to explain to a child how they know God is real.  I believe this is a book that should be shared with every 5 year old and older to share God's love with them.
