In drawings and words, children describe their fears (school, dogs, accidents, death, etc.) and the various ways they can overcome them (prayer, common sense, parents, etc.). The naive art is monotonous, and the book offers little that kids can't figure out for themselves; still, it's always nice to know you're not alone.

Each of the Old Testament stories in this collection is retold and illustrated by children ages five to twelve. The book includes twenty of the best-known Bible stories, such as Adam and Eve and Noah's Ark. The tales are unevenly told: sometimes they're endearing, sometimes they're too thin. The guileless paintings by children may help kids in Sunday-school classes approach this material.
