You Are... special


One of my favourite writers is Max Lucado. His children's books have changed my life as I have read them to my children at bedtime. My absolute favourite is You Are Special - this has helped me so much with understanding how little it matters what people think about me and how much what God says about me really matters. This book has helped me so much with my identity & I know it will help my children with theirs as they grow up. Sometimes it's the simplest things that are most powerful, I imagine this is partly what Jesus meant when he said in Luke 18:17; "whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will by no means enter it"

Have you ever been impacted by a children's book?

    Yes, he is a great writer! Very popular in Brazil and U.S. I was so happy when I got his Bible given by my nephew who is a missionary! It brings great way to study the bible. I have not read much of his books for kids. Only those I get here as a present from friends. I hope to get them when I am back to England. My children love books.
    Great book, thanks for sharing!!!
