I respectfully disagree with the previous reviewer. A life of faith means living according to God's word. To be a Christian means to accept Christ as the one True Savior. The Bible is God's word, and we need know nothing more or nothing less than is in it. Those seeking a more academic bent will not be satisfied with this book because it adheres strictly to Scripture in giving its answer. God Himself tells us to seek Him as children, and the answers given in this book respectfully and beautifully follow that mandate. Things of faith simply can't (and shouldn't) fall into academic frameworks, aside from learning Bible history or the particulars of the events and/or people presented in it. The previous reviewer mentioned that many of the answers seemed to stem from the same idea: "God is infallible." Therein lies the answer. God IS infallible, and thus should be trusted even beyond our human capacity to trust. I believe it is incredibly important for children to know this, above all, if they are to live lives rich in faith. Believing in God means completely trusting that His word is the ONLY word. This book does a beautiful job of reminding children (and adults, too!) that God is constant, faithful, and unchanging, and so is His word.
