Description (From Deseret Book): All around the world, Latter-day Saint children go to church, sing songs, pray, read scriptures, participate in family home evening, and get baptized. We may meet in different types of buildings or speak different languages, but we have a lot in common. Why? Because no matter where we live, we all love and believe in Jesus, and He loves each one of us just the same. Are you like Pablo, Dimitri, Bayani, Junpei, and Shamara? Do you believe in Jesus too?

My view: You know my son saw this book and crawled right up into my lap and asked me to read it to him. The pictures are beautiful and the words and message are simple and wonderful and full of love. It was fun to talk about places all over the world and see that we are both very similar and also have fun differences. We've only had this book for a week and already we've read it a dozen times. It's delightful!

From facebook: I have wanted to become a published author since grade school and I am so excited to finally have my 1st children's book come out. It's taken about 11 years of writing and sending in my manuscripts to finally have my dream come true. "I Believe in Jesus Too" comes out February 21st, 2012. Thanks for sharing in the excitement with me!
