I just received my copy and I cannot wait to read this to my grandkids! I bought it for a Christmas gift. It is perfectly relatable to kids of all ages. I love the message that God's mercy is available for everyone. I think anyone would like to read this book but it is especially endearing to children. The pictures are colorful but not distracting. I would highly recommend this book!

What a beautiful book! I was blessed to win this before its release during a Scott Hahn and John Bergsma conference. This book shines a light on God’s incredible mercy toward us. It reminds us how, just as the devil deceived Adam and Eve with lies, he continues to do so throughout history—even in our own lives. Yet, despite our sins, God is always waiting for us with open arms in the sacrament of reconciliation. It’s a powerful reminder of His love and forgiveness. This book isn’t just for kids—it’s perfect for adults too. Highly recommend adding it to your collection!
