If Jesus lived inside my heart, would other people know?

If Jesus Lived Inside My Heart takes that question and answers it in a charming and colorfully illustrated way to teach your preschooler what it means to live for Jesus, and to do what Jesus would have you do.

The story is written in rhyme, and is sure to hold the child’s interest. I sat down and read this book right away to my two- and five-year-old right away, and they both loved it.

If Jesus Lived Inside My Heart is hardcover, and perfectly sized to be a stocking stuffer for Christmas, or a gift anytime. I loved the story and the thought, and this would even be excellent for children’s lessons in preschool children’s church classes.

I highly recommend this cute little book for your favorite preschooler–or as a gift to the church nursery or preschool departments. Its sturdy, so not easily destroyed, and the children will love it.

Armchair Interviews says: Great story for three to six year olds.
