As they laugh at the antics of Pip, Tommo and Bart they will also discover the love and teaching of Jesus. Mary Hawes, National Children & Youth Adviser 'Laugh out loud, feel good, family fun. I love it.' Steve Legg 'Only a Bible story book by Bob Harman could have chapter titles like "Pants", "Leopards", and "Hankie"! The illustrations are brilliant, the application so very practical and the storytelling just what you'd expect from somebody who has held generations of children spellbound. A child you care for will love "Hanging out with Jesus Again." Rob Parsons OBE, Founder and Chairman, Care for the Family 'Bob's writing is just fabulous. The stories leap off the page - modern, accessible, and above all FUN!. These tales of friends getting things wrong, puzzling it all out, is a great reminder that the disciples were really rather like us. Bob's skill at storytelling is first class. Oh, and if you didn't know - these stories go back a long way! I bet you just didn't know how funny they could be. A fab book for your bookshelf, your eyes and your heart. Bob's done it again!' Paul Kerensa

We all long to enjoy the Bible ' to savour it and taste its sweetness. Yet often we do not do it justice, as there are particular challenges to enjoying it in community, read aloud as part of our worship. Although this is how much of the Bible was originally shared, our experience of hearing it read can often seem far from sweet. To bring the Scriptures to life we need to spend time with the text, tasting and enjoying it ourselves, and understanding what we are presenting and to whom. Then comes the opportunity for creativity to add a spark as we encounter God's word together. Hartman demonstrates this with his characteristic flair.
