ospel a good book for discussion September 6, 2009 Douglas Carl Haag It's nice to go back & re-read Dr. Seuss, and then look at the parallels Kemp draws with Bible verses & stories. Makes for good discussion.
Enjoyable June 15, 2009 Alan E. Starn (York, PA USA) I found this book interesting, but I only suggest this book to someone using it as a sermon or a lesson plan. It's a good book, but when going with the books concept, you're better of using the Peanuts books of the same nature.
For the Kid in All of Us . . . May 25, 2009 Hugh j Poland (Houston, Tx) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
While reading this excellent book, I was taken back to my own childhood days, back to Green Eggs and Ham, The Sneetches, and of course, that loveable Cat in the Hat. Of course, author James Kemp brings out subtle details in the stories that I never saw as a child . . . a deeper truth that permeates the writings of Theodor Geisel, also known as Dr. Seuss.
A great way to use this book is to read one of the short chapters for yourself, then reread one of the Seuss classics with your kids. You'll be able to share spiritual truth with them in a fun way.
Great Small Group Study or Personal Devotion January 27, 2009 Kelly Klepfer (Iowa) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
James Kemp has crafted a little devotional book with a substantial amount of meat. Based on the story within beloved and not so well known Seussian characters and books Kemp shares some the basics of the Christian life and faith. Topics like ecology, racism, forgiveness, humility and faith are covered in the thirteen short lessons. Only ninety pages, this is a perfect book for small groups. Though there are no follow-up questions, a creative person could easily craft some. Teens might find the writing a little adult but the ideas could easily be adapted for a youth group.
A Favorite Theologian March 8, 2007 Jennifer Longworth (Lexington, KY) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Our Sunday School class has used this wonderful book as a study in the past and will be using it again this spring. Although Kemp passed away last fall, his insights will live on through this book and the folks whose lives it touches.
