review 1: As near to perfect a book on the parables **for teaching your family** as there could be written. Usually when teaching children from an "adult book," you have to paraphrase or summarize...but not so with this book. It's actually possible to read practically word for word without losing your children's attention (elementary age and older). Fascinating, easy and quick to read and skim, with a lot of fun insights into the parables.
review 2: My mother-in-law (who is not LDS) likes to buy me LDS books as gifts...which I find amusing, especially since I don't buy a ton of LDS publications myself. (I'm picky.) She sent me this book in a group with several others and I was pleasantly surprised. I loved the way Bytheway broke down each parable and included so much ... moreresearch and insight, but in a very readable way. There were even a few parables that I had never learned about before. I gained a greater appreciation and understanding of the Savior's life--and especially the Atonement--after reading this book. I would recommend it to anyone seeking a better grasp on the parables taught by Jesus Christ. less
