"Pudge Ate a Prophet: A Big Fish Tale"
Stories that help children feel good about themselves are not only enjoyable, but are important as well. One such book is "Pudge Ate a Prophet: A Big Fish Tale." This book is the first book in Kregel's "God Can Use Me" series.
This story stars Pudge, a fish, who happens to be larger than any of his fish friends. Because of his large size, his fish friends did not want to play with him. In fact, most of the time they weren't very nice. One day Pudge meets Jonah, a prophet, and carries out an important mission from God. He delivers Jonah to his destination by carrying him in his large fish belly! From that moment on, Pudge realizes that God made him different for a reason.
MyParenTime.com recommends this book -- it's a "feel good about yourself" story that children of any faith can relate to and enjoy. In addition, the large illustrations are bright and colorful. This story reminds me of "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer" -- none of his reindeer friends wanted to play with him because he had a nose that glowed. But in the end, Rudolph showed them that he was made different for a reason, and that he was indeed important.
