One Hand, Two Hands, by Max Lucado

Max Lucado, the author of so many wonderful books has written a masterful children’s book based on service with our hands. Throughout the story, “One Hand, Two Hands”, you are treated with all the things that can be done with our hands; cleaning rooms, hugging grandma, cooking with your mom, etc. At the end of the story there are several categories of service and what we can do to serve others in those areas.

I have kids aged seven, five (almost 6), and two years old. I was very interested in receiving this book because it looked, by the illustrations that my two year old girl would love it. Ever since we received it in the mail, she has wanted to read it every night before bed. The illustrations are perfect for children. Active, colorful and engaging, my toddler can keep her hands off the book. She absolutely loves it. Even my five year old enjoys it. It’s also a great story book for him to read while he is just now learning. My wife and I love it because it provides a helpful tool for engaging our children in the topic of helping others and doing good to others; that is to say, living the Christian life. I heartily recommend this book to anyone wishing to pass along a heritage of service to the next generation.
