GOD’S NAMES
By Sally Michael
P&R Publishing. 120 pages. £12.99
ISBN 978 1 596 382 190

God’s Names is an excellent resource for children. It clearly explains the meaning of 24 names for God, using biblical examples and other relevant illustrations.

The book is full of ideas and activities for parents and children to do together to learn more. I gave this book to a friend with children aged 4 to 8, who found the activities very helpful and well thought out. It is brightly coloured, with clear print and good illustrations.

I would suggest using a simpler version of the Bible than the English Standard Version in future editions to make it easier for children to understand.

Overall, I would definitely recommend this book to anyone with children in the age range 4-11, who want to spend time with their children helping them to grow in their knowledge of God.
