Answers kids will understand— based on the best-selling
book for adults
Enjoy exploring life in Heaven. After all, it's a
place where you can live forever someday—a place
without fear, anger, sadness, or sickness. And it's
not just a place without bad stuff. It's a place full
of great stuff: beauty, joy, fun, lots of activity,
and rest when you need it. We'll have endless adventures
together with Jesus and each other. It's a place where
you can live with the wonderful and fascinating God
who created you. And it's a place where you can hang
out with all sorts of kind and interesting people
who will be your friends forever.
This book has many questions and answers people have
asked about life after death, and it's especially
geared to children ages 8-12.
In
a language kids can understand, Randy Alcorn explores
Biblical answers to the questions kids often have
about heaven. As in the adult title,
Heaven, he addresses
the difference between the present Heaven, where we
go when we die, and the New Earth, where we will live
forever with Jesus after he returns. Intended for
kids age 8-12, Heaven for Kids is sure to be
an excellent resource for families, especially those
in which the parents have read the adult title and
wish to pass on that same level of understanding to
their children. The book features ten chapters of
questions, and answers based on scripture and written
in a style relevant to today's kids. The book also
has a summary of the Gospel for those who want to
be sure they are going to Heaven someday. Randy encourages
kids to live "in Light of Heaven."
Kids have always asked . . .
Do we become angels in heaven?
Is heaven "up"?
What will we eat?
Will I have to play a harp?
. . . and adults have always wanted to give better
answers.
Here's good news!
As a parent and a grandparent, Randy Alcorn knows
how important it is to pass along the biblical truths
about heaven. So in Heaven for Kids, Randy
has adapted for a younger generation his best-selling
adult version of Heaven.
He's made all the great information and fresh teaching
accessible and applicable for kids. Heaven for
Kids:

Reader Responses
Last summer my 13-year-old daughter read your book, Heaven for Kids, and loved it. I chose it to read to my 7- and 10-year-old boys as a read-aloud book this school year (I homeschool). On September 13, my husband was hit and killed by a driver who ran a stop sign. I feel God chose that book for me and our family this year. I now read a small section each night with my boys. My 10-year-old says reading this book helps him sleep at night. It has been good to read about what life may be like for Daddy (who we know is in Heaven because he asked Jesus into his life when he was young and was a godly man and father). I thank God for giving you the wisdom to write this book for kids. I wanted you to know that your book has been so helpful for me and the kids in our grieving process. - S. H.
