The Bible tells stories of hundreds of people, and all of them disobey God . . . except one. So hope doesn’t come from the good things we do. It comes as a gift, from what Jesus has done.
Sophie, a little girl upset after disobeying her parents, learns the basics of the gospel of grace from a neighborhood cat through a conversation based on the first question and answer of the Heidelberg Catechism:What is your only comfort in life and in death? That I am not my own, but belong . . . to my faithful Savior, Jesus Christ.
Weaving accessible truths with whimsical illustrations and engaging rhymes, this book will help both you and your children understand grace in a fresh way.

“I think kids of all ages will enjoy the intriguing dialogue between Sophie and her neighbor’s cat. It gives parents a lot to think about, too. Even better— everyone will remember the most comforting, time-tested answer to the question of all questions:What is your only comfort in life and in death?”

“Outstanding! A beautifully written and illustrated book.Sophie and the Heidelberg Catengages the youngest child with its splendid color and images. Written in poetic style, the dialogue between Sophie and the cat visualizes for little ones what guilt, forgiveness, and hope in Christ look like. Our six-year-old was simply riveted.”

Reminder of our deep need for Christ to shape our hearts
I purchased this book after reading previous reviews on it, and I'm very glad I did. The kids absolutely love it! This book describes grace that has been given to us, not through our good behaviour, but through Christ who was good on our behalf when we come to him by faith. That we are now his because of Christ. Such life giving words and reminders of what God has done for us in a world where it's all about what we can do. My 3 year old will listen, however, my 5 & 6 year old were able to understand more. Highly recommend to have this on the shelf.

Alas almost
This is a great book. Well written for kids and to be read to kids. The Artwork exceptional. Loved it. Couple of things could help it. The text size is two small to read well from the side if using it to read to a group of children like at Church. This could be improved by either making the font larger or highlighting with contrasting color. Other than that; Excellent! Thank you!
