Princess Grace and Poppy (I Can Read!1/princess Parables Series)

This book is simply delightful! The pictures are so detailed and remind me of disneys lovely characters, except with Godly stories with hidden meanings based on Gods word. This one is based on the scripture,""""Be kind and compassionate to one another"""" (Eph 4:32). \\r\\n\\r\\n My daughter Grace loves all this series, with the princess sisters names being Joy, Grace, Faith, Charity (love), and Hope! We especially love the way the book portrays the five Princess sister's Father, with such respect (which helps create a good father image to girls, and also reinforces our relationship with Father God). \\r\\n\\r\\nIn this book, the daughters find kittens and I am especially impressed that they ask their father if they can keep them and the king says,""""we will talk about it"""". Then they pray """"Dear God, thank you for the kittens. If daddy says yes, I promise to take care of them"""". In so many ways, this is enriching our childrens attitudes to accept Gods authority and their parents in their lives. \\r\\n\\r\\nThe stories are also nice and long, this one has 32 pages with challenging yet well rated Level 1 words, that help inspire new readers, especially with all the pictures and a few lines of writing on each page. My girls regularly re-read these. \\r\\n\\r\\n I dont hesitate to give this book 5 stars and recommend the series.
