  • There is no doubt that John Calvin is a major historical figure. His critiques of the Roman Catholic Church helped to fundamentally change the world. If you are going to teach your children world history, Calvin is as an important person to learn about. Yet, there are relatively very few children's books written about him. "John Calvin" is written from a religious perspective. It was written by and for "Calvinists". Having said that it is also a balanced book that does an excellent job of laying the details of John Calvin's life in an age appropriate manner. It was an interesting book and I am glad that I read to my child. Recommended.

  • Great child's book for being introduced to a reformation father.

  • very nice book with great detail on a kid level. The kids really enjoyed it and the pictures were pretty good as well.

  • John Calvin's writings are extensive and important for those of the Reformed faith. Many theologians have studied
    his works for years and many books are written to clarify his positions on important topics. Yet, he is also an important
    man for young people to learn about. His biography is well written and has pictures, which helps visualize his life
    and something of his literary works. I would recommend this book as a cheerful and happy book to study
    and enjoy knowing that John Calvin is a great Christian to emulate as well as learn more bout.

  • I just found this book a week ago and am impressed enough that I'm having all my kids read it. I'm our church librarian and have been looking for a good and readable biography of Calvin for elementary age children for several years now, and when I saw good reviews on this one, I bought it. I had no idea it would be so attractive and well-illustrated. I sincerely hope there will be a series of biographies like this.

    Highly recommended.

  • Excellently done! I purchased three of the Biographies for my grandchildren and have so enjoyed reading them myself. The artwork is in keeping with the literary work. I will be purchasing more of Simonetta Carr's books.

  • Found it informative for my kids.

  • My son teachers rated its very high and he love it very much.... will order a few more books at a later date
