WAIT TILL YOU SEE THE BUTTERFLY
By Doreen Tamminga
Banner of Truth. 246 pages. £7.50
ISBN 978 1 848 711 013

Wait till you see the butterfly contains short stories written to be read to children.

The book is divided into stories for 4-6 years, 7-9 years and 10-12 years. The author’s aim is ‘to point children to the Lord Jesus as the only Saviour from sin, and to encourage Christian living. The book is a useful resource for those engaged in children’s work and meets the author’s aims, but it might be better not to rely on it too heavily. It is not a book that can be read straight through, but would be better used very selectively. It helpfully contains a topical index.
