Avery’s Dream “Jesus is Alive” is a story about a curious little girl who wanted to know the story of Jesus. He came to her in a dream, and a conversation took place between the two. He tells her of His birth, death, and resurrection. This book is simple, easy to read & it’s a great bedtime story for parents and grandparents to read to their children or grandchildren. Also, it can be read by a child. I've always believed that it’s better to teach the story of Jesus to little children. Jesus loves them and wants them to accept Him as their Lord and Savior. Jesus said, "Don't hinder the children from coming to me." This book is for all children around the world. I pray God's blessing on all who take the time to read this book to a child. God bless you.
