(3) K-3 Illustrated by Steve Johnson & Lou Fancher. A young boy describes how Sunday differs from other days of the week: he gets dressed up ("I guess that's what the Lord wants, but I wish He didn't"), listens to the pastor "preaching up a storm," and races home for a family dinner. The slice-of-life tale balances reverence and humor. Illustrations collage church and family scenes with scripture passages and hymns.
Reviewer: Henrietta M. Smith
