I really enjoyed 'Twas the Season of Lent by Glenys Nellist! 'Twas the Season of Lent is a 40-day devotional/story book to prepare young kids for the Easter season. I love the way Ms. Nellist breaks down the events of and surrounding Easter and that the Bible references were included as well as prayers with entry. I highly recommend 'Twas the Season of Lent and believe it would be perfect for kids to read during the Easter season or as part of the family devotional time. Thank you to NetGalley and the Publisher for the opportunity to read this book. My review is also on Goodreads.

This is a great devotional for children to help them get ready for the season of Lent.

Is using a familiar children's Christmas rhyme, the author, Glenys Neist, already captures the kids' attention.

Each day, for 40 days, is a simplified retelling of a Bible story, with a short prayer to recite at the end in line with that day's Bible reading.

The format makes it a quick read and the language is simple for the children to understand.

It would make a great tradition as families prepare for the season of Lent.

This is a 40 day devotional that would be perfect for families of young children to do during Lent. Bible stories are written in ways that are easy for children to understand and throughout are snippets of the poem, 'Twas the Season of Lent.

I received an eARC of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.

This is such a nice devotional. I would highly recommend this for the Season of Lent or even during the month of Christmas.The illustrations are so pretty. You can move through this one night at a time, or go through it like a Bible Study. I would recommend this for a family to do at night before bed.
