The newest addition to bestselling author Lee Stobel’s youth collection is Case for Grace for Kids, a presentation of true stories that introduce and explore the concept of God’s forgiving love. Lee Strobel and Jesse Florea write about seven real people (“The Orphan,” “The Prodigal,” “The Professor,” “The Evangelist,” “The Executioner,” “The Hero,” and “The Thief”) who have experienced and recognized God’s grace in their lives. Their situations include abandonment, drug abuse, isolation, discrimination, stealing, endangerment, childhood illness, and genocide. Each has overcome adversity through God’s mercy and compassionate care. Though intended for a juvenile audience, some realities described in the book are particularly harsh, such as the actions of the Khmer Rouge. With Case for Grace for Kids, primary author Lee Strobel aims to share the good news of God’s munificence and love. He writes of his personal encounter with discovering and accepting God’s grace, and incorporates many of his own thoughts and realizations throughout the book. A final chapter provides numerous biblical citations to help readers find references to grace in scripture. With conversational chapters, easy readability, and compelling situations, Case for Grace for Kids offers a means for young readers to discover and explore the certainty of God’s grace. At the end of each “case,” a shaded box (“Face-to-Face with Grace”) poses questions for discussion or introspection. Cartoon drawings by Terry Colon and sidebar trivia (the name “Grace,” saying grace before meals) add a light touch. Nina Ditmar, CLJ
