Sunday School Reading

During my last year in High school, I worked at a summer camp for children between the ages of 4 and 10. Imagine trying to find fun activities which inspired such a wide age range. I soon found though, that these children were on fire for God. Upon realizing this, I had to create an activity which would help all of the kids learn more about God. so I searched the library high and low for a children's book that would teach and interest my young students. Le Tord's story, The Little Hills of Nazareth, did just that. The young children loved the simple illustrations and the older kids loved their ability to read the complex story of Mary and Joseph and Naboth to the open ears of the younger children. Afterwards, I had them draw pictures of their favorite Bible story and found that many tried to imitate the work of Le Tord. It is not easy to come upon books which will captivate and inspire young people. I think that is why I appreciate Le Tord and her works so much. The Little Hills of Nazareth is just one example of how simple elegance can create beautiful images in the minds of all people, young and old.
