A good introduction to different Bible characters. Including both Old and New Testament characters, Faithful Friends gives a quick one-page summary of each character complete with a cloth doll "illustration". This book would be good to read for a family devotional time and then provide opportunities for further exploration of the characters with older kids.
I received an eARC of this book from the publisher via NetGalley. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.

I LOVED this! Read an advanced reader copy (thank you to the publisher and NetGalley). I cannot wait to get my hands on a physical copy to read with me children (who share names with characters in this book). Highly, highly recommend this for Christian families.

We’ve been reading this story during bedtime and the children love it! From the cute little illustrations to the wording of stories from the Bible. The way the Bible is interpreted seems spot on and easy enough for children to understand. Love how each story is about different people from the Bible.
Thank you to the author, the publisher, and NetGalley for this eARC in exchange for my honest review!
