Completely unexpected, wonderful surprise! I'm beyond delighted to see the amount of creativity combined with solid Bible lessons and activities that connect it all for kids! This is a must-have resource - it will make a tremendous VBS and can be used any time of the year as it is completely reproducible. If Cook adds in the Daily Application Activities and helps for volunteers to connect with kids, it would be perfect! If you do not select this as your primary VBS, definitely get it and plan to use in another area of your children's ministry. Tremendously well done, Cook! If I selected only one for my VBS, this would be it!
