The Countries of Whine and Roses

By Joyce Wheeler

Description:

Laughter! Music and dancing! Songs in the streets and the heavenly scent of roses everywhere! Life in the Country of Roses is beautiful day after day. But one day the King makes an astonishing announcement that takes everyone's joy away. Even the powerful horse Diamond drops his head in sadness. You won't want to miss how tears give way to laughter once again, and Diamond gains a surprise rider! God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit is beautifully allegorized in this easy to understand story.

Book Takeaway:

Our Heavenly Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit care deeply about each one of us on earth

Why the author wrote this book:

This was a story my third grade release time students loved. I wanted to give them an idea of the sacrifice God the Father made when He sent His Son to earth to take away our sins. It was also an easy way to introduce the Holy Spirit.
