Dangerous Journey: The Story of Pilgrim's Progress

Rating:
Summary: A very good revision of Pilgrims Progress.
Review: I found the book to be very good 12 years ago. I read it to my children when they were able to understand it. I also found the illustrations to be extrodinary and helped explain the story very well. I am going to purchase this book again today for my daughter.

Summary: Kids love it...and so do I!
Review: I read this to my kids at church because it beautifully illustrates some of the most basic Christian principles. They couldn't wait to discover what happened next as Christian journeyed to the Celestial City. They each wanted to read aloud and after completing the book, they each wanted to borrow it so they could read it again at home. Guess why I'm online now? I think copies of their own will make great gifts! Can there be a higher compliment for a book?

Summary: I'm certain that even God keeps this one in His library.
Review: John Bunyan has created a story that will, regardless of your religious affiliation, profoundly move your heart. The author has created settings and characters that boldly reflect the best and worst of all things experienced within a lifetime, for all time. Bunyan's book is as relevant and necessary today as at any point since being written in 1676. If you read only one version of Pilgrim's Progress, make sure that "Dangerous Journey," is it. The poetic flow and wonderful illustrations grab and hold onto to you at word one and never let go.

Summary: Lush and Gripping
Review: Ok, that title sounds like a cheesy Rex Reed movie review. But this book really did grab me. The illustrations are generously sized and very detailed. No matter how many times you have read Pilgrim's Progress you will be challenged to see things in a new light. And your kids will be drawn into the timeless story.

In a day when Western culture has lost its Biblical morrings and no longer sees life as a pilgrimage, a jounrey to Heaven, this book draws us out. It pulls us from the search for inner self-fulfilment and directs us outward to get on the road. This metaphor for the Christian life is just so gripping.

A must have for parents and their kids.

Summary: Childhood Favorites
Review: This was my favorite book growing up, the illistrations are great and the story keeps you on your toes. Great bedtime story book as something is always happening (beware you can't finish in night though). Dragons, demons, giants, dark woods, and angels. A good introduction to the Christian walk in a way a small child can enjoy and still savor as an adult.
