Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
A Child Sees God
Howard Worsley · 2009
76/100
👍 Worth It
Howard Worsley's research into how children actually respond to Bible stories — using their real words, organized into seven archetypal categories — makes this far more interesting than a typical Sunday-school curriculum guide. Published by Jessica Kingsley and grounded in a PhD education background, it earns its place on the shelf of any parent or religious educator who wants to think seriously about child theology. The scholarly tone keeps it out of casual reading territory, but that's by design.
