Read and Share: The Story of Easter Review
THE STORY OF EASTER is a part of the Read and Share Bible series. My son and I had a great time making this part of our nightly reading just before Easter. Gwen Ellis and Steve Smallman have taken key passages of the Easter story and made them accessible to young readers. Each story is accompanied by kid-friendly illustrations. At the beginning of each chapter, the creators have referenced the scripture passages which may lead moms and dads to re-examine these important passages of scripture.
A DVD is also included with THE STORY OF EASTER. It contains about a half dozen stories which also take place during the same period. The stylized computer animation isn't of the caliber of Veggie Tales or Pixar, but its well done and gives kids another piece of the puzzle. I plan on passing the book and DVD along to our church youth director so he can share it wit the kids during junior church. At three minutes, the segments are the perfect length to watch and discuss as a group.

Read and Share: The Story of Easter Overview
From the Read and Share Bible brand, this retelling of the Easter story is explained in a way that helps young children understand the life, death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus.
Based on the International Children's Bible, this story walks through the last week of Christ's life and is told in a way that teaches children about the amazing gift Jesus gave us. Events include His triumphant entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday through His appearance to the disciples and His ascension. The "Can You Retell the Story" activity at the end of the book is a fun way to hide the Word in their heart.
The animated DVD includes a 15-minutes of stories plus coloring pages and other bonus features.
