GoodBookStall Review:
A few years ago Summerfield Supermarkets made the statement that most people do not realize that the significance of the Easter Egg is that we are celebrating the birth of Jesus. In 2009 a presenter for the BBC One programme, The One Show stated that Easter was when Christians celebrate the accession of Christ. Like Christmas the Easter story has become so distorted that many children ignore the spiritual significance and associate it with chocolate. Thankfully, as they have done with Christmas, BRF have produced a superb book to help get the message into primary schools. This book not only has a series of presentations on the Easter Story that children can get involved with but advice on how to approach schools, get a team together and other practical issues. Supported by the website www.easterjourney.org.uk this book is a must for churches that want to remind children that Easter is more than chocolate eggs.
