What is Heaven Like?

I purchased this book for my children after the death of their grandfather. Even though my children range in age from 5-12, they all got something comforting from this book. The younger ones even asked to bring in to school where their teacher read it to the class. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who has lost a loved one and for parents who are seeking age-appropriate explanations.

Good book for 3+ years

Like this book a lot. Pictures are really pretty and my three year old understood it easily. About a boy who misses his grandpa who just passed away and how to get to heaven biblically (thru Jesus).

Heavenly Depiction of Heaven!

A beautifully crafted and illustrated description of Heaven that is accurately grounded in Scripture. Meaningful for both young children and adults. We have given it as a gift to our grandchildren and to grieving families who have lost a loved one.

Beautifully told, wonderfully illustrated

What a wonderful way to help children find answers to their questions about heaven. The story unfolds as the young boy searches for answers about heaven after the death of his grandfather. As he asks his neighbors, his teachers, the postman, and the ice cream truck owner, he discovers that everyone has good thoughts about heaven. But it's his grandmother's answer--based on the Bible, that give him the most comfort.

Great addition to church or family libraries

We've all wondered it: What Is Heaven Like? Now Beverly Lewis addresses the question in this lovely, thoughtful story for children. The boy in the story tells of his loneliness for his grandpa who has recently died. He then asks friends, teachers, neighbors, and family what Heaven is like, gaining a different perspective from each. Appropriately his questions end with his grandma who misses Grandpa so much, too. The boy tells his story, but oddly enough, we never learn his name nor his sister's, though we learn the names of his dentist, the ice cream truck driver, and his next-door neighbor. When the boy discusses his loneliness for Grandpa with Grandma, she gives him the plan of salvation. Pamela Querin's beautiful full-color illustrations enhance this hardcover book. Each two-page spread includes a verse about Heaven or life after death. On the last page, Lewis includes some notes to parents on teaching children about Heaven. What Is Heaven Like? would be a great addition to a church, Christian school, or family library. The reading level is appropriate for second to fourth graders though younger children would profit from having it read. - Debbie W. Wilson, Christian Book Previews.com
