This is an excellent book for young children, though people of all ages will be equally entertained and well informed by its content.

Written by Gemma Willis, Diary of a Disciple's quirky and accessible style offers a way into the Bible for the next generation.

My son (aged 8) has been reading diary of a wimpy kid but now he's reading diary of a disciple avidly. Winding along the road to Emmaus, Join two friends on the road as the joy of the first Easter dawns.Bringing the life of Jesus into a new retelling for ages 8–11, Diary of a Disciple makes Luke’s Gospel accessible with a fresh new voice in the quirky and brainy Dr Luke.
