Stories Jesus Told: The Lost Son Comes Home

The parable of the prodigal son comes alive in this picture book. Realistic artwork helps children connect to the characters' emotions: the prodigal's discontent, the father's heartbreak, the brother's jealous anger, and more as the story unfolds. As children understand these emotions, they begin to grasp God's unconditional love and forgiveness as demonstrated by the father welcoming his son home.
