Faithful, theologically rich children's books are a rare treat in Christian publishing. Laferton has provided us one of the best little treatments of biblical theology available for parents to read to their children. The Garden, the Curtain, and the Cross not only teaches children stories in the Bible but the story of the Bible - one that culminates in the atoning work of Jesus Christ who gives broken sinners access to God. This book is a tremendous resource for parents and children who want to better understand the grand storyline of Scripture.
I am so excited about this book! It is colorful, engaging, and creative, and that's just the icing on the cake! Our children receive invitations to participate in many different stories—stories of who they are, their purpose, and what God is like. The Garden, the Curtain and the Cross is a brilliant re-telling of the one story that rules all other stories. I cannot commend this book highly enough. Read it to your children, give it to your neighbours, and talk about what it means to live in light of the fact that the curtain has been torn.
This is quite superb. Beautifully written and illustrated, this tells the story of the gospel so captivatingly that little ones will want to read it again and again. I’m sure it will win many young lives to Christ.
I think Carl Laferton has done an exceptional job of simplifying an essential truth which could easily come across as very complicated … He makes articulating doctrine seem like child’s play.... continue reading
I love how this Bible storybook displays the parallels between creation, temple, and cross. It is a wonderful explanation of how Jesus fulfilled what was broken and how the entire biblical narrative comes full circle. Pictures are fun and intriguing for kids.
I read this book to children of different ages and cultures. They were all captivated and engaged by the combination of the storyline and the illustrations. The revealing of the truth about the tearing of the curtain was delightful to see in the children's eyes.
We absolutely love this collection,
My daughter gave one of these books to her first grade teacher and she loved it.
While The Garden, The Curtain and The Cross is a children's book, all ages can learn from the spiritual connections it makes between the Old and New Testaments. Carl Laferton has become my favorite author of Children's books.
These images were amazing. I used them for a read-a-loud with a large number of kids. I read from the book and they see the images on a screen. It works wonderfully!!
This is one of my highest-recommended children's books! We bulk-ordered it and passed them out to all the kids at our church on Easter Sunday! A comprehensive Biblical look at the whole Gospel in terms children can understand and adults can enjoy.
Kids love it and request to re-read it constantly!
This is lovely book which gives the big overarching story of the gospel in a very relevant way with great illustrations.
It kept my kids’ attention and has a great message!
This is a wonderful book. Our church shared this with us and we got a copy to read at home to the kids. The story is great and the images are engaging for the kids.
