Parents and children alike will love this book! It tells the story succinctly while also making a lasting impact on readers’ characters. The illustrations tactfully infuse light comedy into the poignant message with the absurd temper of King Ira and all the strong feelings on the peoples’ faces. It’s definitely going to be requested to be read again and again!
The discussion points and suggested next steps shared in the back are packed with Scripture and helpful to all ages for learning to be self-controlled. I can easily see future references to King Ira when helping my children develop this fruit of the Spirit.
Enjoy!
