It seems to me that many hours have been spent producing this and it successfully conveys the biblical text young minds in particular. The Diary of a Disciple series is an award winning collection of contemporary children's books, retelling the Gospel.

In an effort to be funny/quirky, this retelling of the gospel sometimes made disrespectful jokes about Jesus and his disciples.

Very honest to the original yet presented in an easy to read format which really highlights key points of the text. I found the zany, comic style of writing not suitable as a means of telling children about the Lord Jesus Christ.From heaving storms to seething Pharisees, Luke follows Jesus through it all, and discovers some amazing things along the way. Beginning with Elizabeth and Zechariah’s miracle child to Jesus’ resurrection, Luke uses doodles and drawings to tell his story of finding out who Jesus is, and why it matters more than anything else. She has a particular interest in the way in which contemporary culture affects the way children and young people engage with faith.
