The Bible says in Proverbs 18:21, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof." The young boy we meet in this book, Timmy, is consumed with the words that his parents speak to him on a constant basis. Finally he finds hope through the understanding his granddad and great-granddad give him about why his dad says the things he says. Not only does Timmy get set free from his fear, his entire family comes to know Jesus as Lord and Savior. Parents, grandparents, this is a book you should read to young kids who have not started to read on their own yet. It is a great bed-time story, and it was written so you would read it one chapter a day. It will give the child time to meditate on what is taught in each chapter. Kids will anticipate getting back to the story each night and discussing with you what they are learning. For those kids who do read, just let them read it on their own. It will teach every child some of God's principles and give them an understanding of how God's word applies to all of our lives.
