Jesus and Me by Joshua Cartwright
How an eight-year-old girl will introduce your daughter to a friendship with Jesus.
Jesus and me uses the story of Imma, 8, to help your child understand how friendship with Jesus is possible.
As a parent (of a nine-year-old girl) and children's author myself I see the other stories that society is feeding our children. Stories are powerful. Stories live us and change us.
So when God put on my heart the the story of a little girl who struggled to come to faith in Jesus - but who has a beautiful faith-building victory - I knew I should write it. It will influence the heart of your child for Christ.
So what's the story...?
Imma is 8 and she's praying for a hero to make the world a better place. She sees that things are wrong - and she hopes for a warrior to come. When she meets Jesus - she sees He has the power - but he won't use force or violence like the bad guys.
Why won't He just *snap*His fingers and change the world?
Jesus and me is the story of a girl who had questions for the Son of God - and wasn't afraid to ask them.
Here's what other parents have said:
· "This is an excellent book. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I know it will be loved by parents and children alike. A great read."
· "This book was so sweet! This would be a particularly wonderful book for young girls, as an introduction to Christ... Wonderfully written!"
· "Jesus and Me can help children to realize at a young age that 'knowing' Jesus is more that just being acquainted but it is about having a personal relationship with Him. I look forward to sharing this book with my preteen grandchildren."
In Jesus and Me your child will experience:
1. Eight faith-building bible-based stories about Imma's encouters with Jesus - suitable for reading alone, together or in devotionals.
2. The relatable character of Imma, a fun, fiesty 8-year-old who asks the kinds of questions a real child might.
3. Beautiful hand-drawn colour pictures showing Imma's interactions with Jesus in a realistic world of Israel.
4. Games that Imma played - your child can play the Jewish game of GAP!
5. The chance to experience what friendship with the Son of God could be like.
As a parent you'll see:
· Biblically respectful material; Scriptures references, the words of Jesus in blue.
· Show your child where Imma and Jesus lived with an illustrated map of Ancient Israel.
· Important Hebrew and Greek words to help your child in worship.
More comments by parents:
· "I love the way Biblical truths and accurate historical details were woven into the story. A great way to teach kids about Jesus."
· "... is a thought provoking story of a little girl that actually gets to meet Jesus. She gets to talk with him and ask questions that most children will ask at some point in life."
· Jesus and Me is a wonderfully refreshing Christian children's book. The story is well paced, each chapter can be a sitting before bed. The phrasing of the stories, and the topics covered, allow discussion and exploration.
