In order to review this book, I read it straight through in a single morning rather than one page a day throughout Lent. That said, its insightful comments make it a perfect daily devotional, and I found myself stopping to ponder many of Sheila Deeth’s commentaries…all of which follow a Biblical story. Her excellent writing skills allow her to convey creditable messages, and pack so much into very few words. The Bible narratives are quickly recognizable and presented in descriptive ways that will have you creating mental pictures of each of them. Meanwhile, every page provides new and interesting insights. Ms. Deeth’s present-day observations after each Biblical focus, carefully link them to the reality of modern day-to-day life. Brief and to the point, I highly recommend you take Shiela Deeth’s spiritual journey through “Easter! Creation to Salvation in 100 words a day.” She has a special way with words, and I found myself easily relating to her childhood memories and to the...

"A Wonderful Book!" This book is a must for Sunday school teachers, children, teenagers, and all of those seeking answers to so many of life’s myriad questions. Highlighted by wonderful color illustrations, Sheila Deeth has captured verses from the Bible and given them new life. Every page teaches us a lesson, asks us to question and correct our ways, and finally leads us to follow the good road. An excellent gift and a book you’ll want as a part of your permanent library.
