This is a wonderful book for anyone who needs a bedtime story book for their children. Each story in this book is a long one that shows a story and ends with a scripture. Each story is different from the next. This would be a good book to be read to your child.

Ugh! I don't like giving low reviews and especially on a book such as this. However, it was very difficult to read and stay engaged. It is compilations of stories and prayers answered. Memaw follows after God and is a prayer warrior. She has told these stories to her grandchildren about the power of God in people's lives. One story that did stick with me was the story of 2 sons. Both so different and both took different paths. The stories reflect personal responsibility which I am big fan of.

I think for me that the stories were too long and should be condensed. If this is geared towards children, it needs to be simplified with words and given more illustrations. I wish the best for this author and I hope she gets the help she needs to edit her stories. She does have a treasure!

2.5 stars
I received an electronic ARC from Carpenter's Son Publishing through NetGalley.
This collection of stories is exactly as described by the author - stories she told her grandchildren over the years. She compiled and published them for others to read. Many of the stories are about family members in several generations. They come up to the present time dealing with Covid but are generic enough they could be any time of serious illness. Some are charming and others don't work well for those beyond the original audience. They will all serve as discussion starting points for Christian families.

Who doesn't love hearing stories from their grandparents? This is such a great book filled with memories & to be honest it makes me want to start keeping record of our memories with my parents & husbands mom to keep their stories for our kids. You'll laugh & you'll just have your heart filled while reading this one. I do wish there were more illustrations but its ok.

In modern parables this book tells the stories of Jesus in digestible ways for children. However, this book could use a good edit and a better eye for a design and illustration. I feels like a first draft. It is low budget and it shows. I cannot recommend.
