Helping Kids Understand Heaven is a “Heavenly adventure of the imagination!” This whimsical storybook for kids and grandkids ages 4-10 is filled with Bible themes and original colorful illustrations, making it an ideal book to read at bedtime or anytime.

A young brother and sister lay in their backyard grass and imagine floating on clouds up to Heaven. There, they meet their heavenly tour guide, Mr. God’s Angel, who helps them understand Heaven by answering 15 questions kids would ask, such as:

“Are animals in Heaven?”

“Will we eat in Heaven?”

“What does Heaven look like?”

“Can we fly in Heaven?”

“Are there bullies in Heaven?”

“What is God like?”

“Is there Christmas in Heaven?”

Mr. God’s Angel answers each question using Bible-based stories and relatable situations. Every answer includes a “Talk About It” page for discussion and concludes with a child’s prayer. The core theme is simple: God is Real, Jesus is Lord, Heaven is Amazing. It also serves as a resource to comfort grieving children.
