Hermie “God Forgives Me”
(This post contains affiliate links. Read my full disclosure.)
I really appreciate the way Max Lucado communicates lessons to kids. Especially in the new book Hermie: God Forgives Me, and I Forgive You.
It starts off with two examples of Wormie being an understanding and forgiving friend when Hermie is forgetful. Then, Hermie’s hesitance to forgive Wormie is in such stark contrast that the lesson teaches itself—the perfect parable! And it all reflects the biblical parable found in Matthew 18.
My 9-year-old niece has read the book to herself at least three times in the past two days. And all three of my kiddoes (4, 3, and 1) sat still to listen.
My favorite page? Hermie dancing in the leaves and singing an ode to fall. (It’s my favorite season, too.)
