Randy Alcorn helps children explore biblical answers to their questions about heaven in language they can understand. As in the adult title Heaven, he distinguishes the present heaven, where believers go when they die, from the New Earth, where God's people will live forever with Jesus after he returns - a distinction most children, and most adults, have never had explained to them.

The book is built around the questions children actually ask: what will our bodies be like, will there be animals, will we recognize each other, will we be bored, what about people we love who have died. Alcorn answers each from Scripture rather than from sentiment, which is what makes the book useful to a grieving child as well as a curious one. Written for ages 8 to 12 and a good fit for family reading or a child's own bookshelf.
