The Lightlings by R. C. Sproul

     Charlie Cobb, like most boys and girls, did not like the dark.  So he asked his grandpa why he and so many other people are afraid of the dark.  Grandpa answered his question with a story about the King of Light and His people called the lightlings.  This allegorical story portrays the creation, fall, the incarnation of Christ and salvation through Him.
     This is another great children's book by Sproul.  I personally did not like the illustrations in this one as much, but the book is definitely one that will spark their interest and encourage them to desire to know more about God especially when followed with the questions and verses at the end of the book.  My two children (ages 2 and almost 5) have enjoyed this story as well as the Prince's Poison Cup.    You can purchase The Lightlings here. 
(Reformation Trust Publishing will be providing me with a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for a fair critique.)

My rating: 4.8 out of 5 stars
