Mr. Henry's Wild & Wacky World

No kid likes to follow all the rules, but Mr. Henry has a funny way of showing that it's totally cool to obey the Lord. Children will come to see that the garden's bananas taste a lot better than the snake's baloney, that it's no fun being fish food at the bottom of the sea, and that red rope licorice goes very well with Jericho crumb cake. It's a smorgasbord of biblical truths about why obeying God always tastes good.

What happens when kids mix a little faith with a big God? They get giant results, as Mr. Henry reveals in his humorous renditions of three Bible classics - Noah and the Ark, Moses and the Israelites, and Daniel and the Lion's Den. From the Moose that licks Noah's nose and the pot of Golden Calf Soup the Israelites drink, to the crazy dreams of crabby King Nebbie and the hungry faces of lions looking for lunchmeat, children won't forget these tales and the truth that there is no other way but to trust and obey.

Mr. Henry knows that kids can have many different fears. That's why he shares the victories of some of the Bible's bravest characters: David, Esther, and Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. Forget suits of armor and superhero outfits, Mr. Henry says. Asking God for courage and strength is the slingshot any child can use to defeat life's giants. With perfect aim, Mr. Henry shows what can happen when we stand strong and take our best shot for God.

God loves us just the way we are, and He wants us to love each other, too! That's what Mr. Henry wants kids to learn as he retells these stories from the Bible: the Good Samaritan, Jesus and the disciples, and Jesus and the little children. In his own wacky way, Mr. Henry teaches some of the most important principles of helping one another.
