Timeless Truth told with a sprinkle of fun!

Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2020

Our family is familiar with Mr. Goodgame's ministry through Slugs and Bugs so my children were very excited to read a book written by one of their favorite people.
We have several books from the Tales That Tell the Truth series and are excited to add this lovely parable.
The truth of this book is astounding. The God of the universe, the One Who humbled Himself to come in human form, is the great Master who makes Himself a servant to those who serve him. The essence of the Gospel is captured in this simple parable with fun and whimsical illustrations that captured the attention of even my youngest reader. Truly a wonderful addition to any child's library where the truths of God's amazing love for His people is important as a theme.

It’s okay

I think there was one maze in the entire book, which of course my kids fought over. It doesn’t have many activities and they’re pretty simple. I’m sharing pictures because there weren’t any and I didn’t know the contents before I purchased.

The Tales that Tell the Truth books are my absolute favorites to read to my daughter. My daughter is three and she LOVES these books—she requests at least one of them daily. The artwork in these books are beautifully done and each story is made simple enough for small children to gain understanding of deep ideas.

We loved this book specifically because of the simple way Jesus is explained and his return is explained. The writing is so well done, emphasizing everything that should be and written in a well-flowing memorable way. Love the repetition that is included on the important parts. It sticks in my daughters head and she can recite parts of the book by memory! It’s so attention grabbing, catchy, and fun to read!

These will be books we keep forever.

I love all of these “tales that tell the truth” books. Some are better then others, but I want to own them all for my children. The illustrations are so adorable & the stories are bible truths presented in a tangible way for little people to treasure. I hope the authors keep making more!

Incredible story, incredible book. We absolutely love it and it’s message. Randall Goodgame can do no wrong as far as I can see. Check out his music cds and dvds as well!
