This was a cute book. For those that are sensitive to human characteristics given to animals, you may not like it for your little ones. For this reason, this is not a book I would normally buy for the kids (especially when they were younger), but at ages 8 and 10, it allowed us an opportunity to discuss why Christ died (and for whom). Look for more children's books in the coming days.
