New Year’s Eve was an exciting time for my kids. This year, we invited a special cousin to come play with us as we welcomed 2016. My daughter took on the role of hostess by planning a new activity for each hour. After they played the Game of Life, they played a rousing game of 20 questions. Then the next hour, another event was planned. Fun times with friends and family is such a big part of our lives. This wonderful evening reminded me of the sweet book Meet My Best Friend by Sheila Walsh.
In the story, the McDougal twins play with their new neighbor, Abby, who just moved to Scotland from America. They set out on a scavenger hunt to find a real treasure – their best friend – but Abby is surprised to find that it’s actually the Bible. As Emma and Liam introduce Abby to the Bible, they explain that it’s a love story from God. I love this tender reasoning and hope that my children reach that understanding about the Bible, too.
The illustrations in Meet My Best Friend are adorable. Likewise, the family dogs Charlie and Wilson have amusing comments that appear in the speech bubbles throughout the story. I hope you enjoy this book as much as we did!
