In a companion volume to their bestselling Mary's First Christmas, author/illustrator team Walter Wangerin, Jr. and Timothy Ladwig once again bring biblical times to life. In Peter's First Easter, they tell the story of Jesus's last days on earth through the eyes of one of his disciples. In a conversational tone, disciple Peter tells the story of Judas's betrayal and his own shameful denial of his savior in his time of need. Lively, full-color pictures illustrate the sometimes gruesome, sometimes joyous events of Jesus's crucifixion, resurrection, and forgiving of Peter.

Wangerin's retelling of the earthly relationship of Jesus and Peter is ideal for families to read together at Easter or anytime. The humanity in the story will touch young readers as they begin to understand the significance of the life and death of Jesus. (Ages 4 to 8) --Emilie Coulter END
