“School Time Blessings” by Mike
Berenstain teaches children about casting their anxieties on the Lord.
I recently cuddled up on the couch
with my four-year-old niece, and we read stories. We started with “No Girls
Allowed” by Stan and Jan Berenstain – a Berenstain Bear book from my childhood. After that book, we read “School
Time Blessings.”
I find that the first generation of
Berenstain Bear books focus on having a thorough storyline, and the new books
focus on applying a spiritual insight. Both are good.
“School Time Blessings” seems to
have more spiritual references than some of Mike Berenstain’s other books do.
When we came to the first mention of God, my niece asked, “are these Sabbath
books?” That made me smile. I’m glad that Mike Berenstain has made his books “Living
Lights” stories. I quietly told my niece that we can read about God any day,
and we finished the story.
“School Time Blessings” offers
everything Mike Berenstain’s other books do – vibrant illustrations, a Bear
Country lesson, and a kid-friendly story. I recommend this book to others.
The
publisher has provided me with a complimentary copy of this book through
BookSneeze®. I was not required to write a positive review.
