In a language kids can understand, Randy Alcorn explores Biblical answers to the questions kids often have about heaven. As in the adult title, Heaven, he addresses the difference between the present Heaven, where we go when we die, and the New Earth, where we will live forever with Jesus after he returns. Intended for kids age 8-12, Heaven for Kids is sure to be an excellent resource for families, especially those in which the parents have read the adult title and wish to pass on that same level of understanding to their children. The book features ten chapters of questions, and answers based on scripture and written in a style relevant to today's kids. The book also has a summary of the Gospel for those who want to be sure they are going to Heaven someday. Randy encourages kids to live "in Light of Heaven."

Makes it understandable for kids how it compares sin with the lion, the witch & the wardrobe book/movie. Just not what I was expecting
Wonderful Book

HeavenEveryone should read this book, Christian or not. If you are a Christian, you will become more excited than ever to leave this earth and go to your new home. If you are not a Christian, you will be ready to give your life to God, so that you too, may go to HEAVEN!!! Everything that Mr. Alcorn writes is backed by scripture, so this is not a "made up" story. "Heaven" has given me more determination than ever to try to reach the unsaved.
Terrific book for kids and adults!

I absolutley love this book! I have a progressive disease and worry about my young child growing up without his mom. I read this book first and found great comfort in what it has to say about Heaven. I appreciate all the references to scripture so you can look things up for your self if you choose. I will now begin reading this to my son so he will have a better understanding of what Heaven is all about. This book is very uplifing. A must have for all Christian homes!
Heaven For Kids

Alcorn's book engages kids to consider God's promise of heaven. Often he uses scenes from popular movies like Narnia and Fellowship of the Ring to engage young readers. We read the book together as a family and truly enjoyed the time together.
Biblical Perspectives on Heaven for Children
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
The CEF Mailbox Club sends Heaven for Kids as an award to children who have completed a certain correspondence course and has been well received. This excellent book should be a "must read" for all 8-12 year olds. It would also be helpful for Sunday school teachers and parents as a guide on how to anwer questions children have regarding Heaven. Each chapter is prefaced with a Scripture passage and a corresponding allegorical selection from The Chronicles of Narnia. The chapters are divided into potential questions on the various aspects of Heaven. There are entertaining examples but the answers are always backed up with a liberal sprinkling of Scripture references and Biblical principles. It also deals with secular misconceptions such as people becoming angels or ghosts when they die and sitting on clouds, etc. Absolutely one of the best books for children that has ever been published.
