Starting with Jesus’ time in the temple as a boy and ending with His appearances after the resurrection, The Easter Storybook invites readers into the big picture of God’s love. Each of the 40 full-color, beautifully illustrated stories includes a Bible passage and a conversational question to guide families through the Easter season together.
The Easter Storybook focuses not just on Jesus’ last days but on the journey of His whole life leading to the joy of Easter morning. Every story will give children a glimpse into Jesus’ identity—as Teacher, Good Shepherd, Savior, and King.
Easter Reading Plans for 2024
The Easter Storybook includes 40 daily stories which can be read together as a family in preparation for Easter. With Easter approaching on March 31, 2024, there are a few ways to schedule your readings.
Some families observe a traditional Lenten calendar, beginning on February 14 this year (Ash Wednesday). This date marks 46 days until Easter, so you can take Sundays off, and the last reading of the book will occur on the day before Easter.
Alternately, a simple 40-day countdown to Easter begins on February 20 this year. The final reading will happen on Easter Sunday.
We hope you find a rhythm that makes sense for your family!
