About the book

Redeemed Reader Review

“The universal experience of anticipation makes the resurrection relatable to children of all ages. Likewise, the three-color illustrations capture human emotions and underscore our own response to this very good news. Something Better Coming is a must-read for the Easter season and could easily become a favorite bedtime story before nightly prayers.”

Kind words

“Ultimately, the pairing of text and image in Something Better Coming makes for a beautiful presentation of a challenging subject – handling the topics of death and the crucifixion in a child-appropriate way without oversimplifying or glossing over the hard parts.”

DANIELLE HITCHEN, founder of Catechesis Books and author of First Bible Basics, Psalms of Praise, From Eden to Bethlehem, and other titles
