When a thing is worthwhile doing, we sometimes say, 'Go for it!' In the Bible, many people wanted to please God, while plenty of others wanted their own way instead of God's. Author Derek Prime calls them Gofors and Grumps. All the letters in the alphabet are used to describe Bible characters--from Mr. Afraid (Adam) through Mr. Zoo-Keeper (Noah)--showing children how we can learn from their lives. It is full of useful learning exercises to occupy younger readers. There is a bible dictionary in each section, together with maps and fact boxes, all well presented and superbly illustrated in black and white. An ideal gift for teaching the young. Recommended for ages 7 to 12.
