Review

Wordishure is a fantasy land where you will meet dragons who enjoy eating hats, mice that collect socks and dress like lions and boys and girls who enjoy having fun and learning about Jesus Christ.

This little book of seven bedtime stories for children is an adventure in imagination and will leave your children wanting to learn more about the land of Wordishure.  Sprinkled generously throughout each story is a lesson to be learned rooted in Scripture.  From the need of and for forgiveness to repentance to the necessity of sharing the gospel with all people, your children will enjoy learning about the Tree Scouts and grabapples.  They will get a toot out of Revelly the squirrel and fall in love with Colby, Jack, and Pepper–the three church mice. When it is all said and done, by the time the last story comes around, your children will realize that as brothers and sisters in Christ, everyone can come together for one cause–the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Tales of Wordishure will be a joy to read as a family.  Throughout the stories, you will be able to share with your children biblical truths based on city names and the interaction of the characters.  I would recommend this book for preschool aged children in your nursery at church or for your children at home.  Personally, I enjoyed getting to know the children and animals in Wordishure and I am sure you would as well.  I look forward to more books in this series.
