Winner of Serious Writer's Book of the Decade Award The Very Best Story Ever Told shares the Gospel story in a unique and creative way, from God's love for the world to Jesus' life to the Spirit surrounding us today. Each line of this story includes important words reinforced with American Sign Language to engage the whole child. As kids learn the signs and repeat the words, visual learning, auditory learning, and kinesthetic learning are fully engaged to equip them to retell the Gospel story again and again. "This book is a delight! Its charming illustrations, clear retelling of the Incarnation, and presentation of God's love packs a bonus by celebrating and introducing American Sign Language to kids. Children (and their grown-ups) will love it!"--Jennifer Grant, author of Maybe God Is Like That Too The Very Best Story Ever Told is a Junior Library Guild Selection.
