Illustrated by
Annabel Tempest.
As the title suggests, this picture book attempts to explain Christian theology using four words: "Wow" (the Creation), "Uh oh" (the Fall), "Yes" (Jesus' life and resurrection), and "Ahh" (human redemption through Christ). The stilted rhyming text may require some additional explication, but the bright, cartoony illustrations--especially closing spreads depicting an idyllic, multicultural New Creation--make the message seem inviting. Suggested Scripture passages appended.
