Easter Stories

Jesus was welcomed to Jerusalem as a king yet put to death on a cross less than a week later. How could this happen? Did God's plan to save his people go horribly wrong? This memorable collection of Bible stories for younger readers recreates the unfolding events of the first Easter. Share the drama of the day Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey, his arrest and trials, his death on a cross, his friends' joy on the first Easter morning, and more... Bob Hartman, author of the immensely popular Lion Storyteller Bible, brings the characters and action vividly to life and captures the changing mood of each event. These stories can be enjoyed when read alone and are ideal for reading aloud.
