Created by the team at GoChatter - a Christian media ministry that serves and equips churches with quality video content aiming to get people talking about Jesus.
There is a whole suite of resources accompanying the book that can be used by families and churches to help children interact with the Easter story and be used to share the gospel in the community.
This small, paperback book retells the Easter story in simple, kid-friendly language. The words have a solid rhythm for reading aloud, and the illustrations are photos of Lego builds. The brick builds by Joshua Whitehouse are intricate and full of details that kids will enjoy exploring, and Rachael Hood tells the Easter story through rhyming text and some speech bubbles.
This picture book is accurate and faithful to the Bible, and it clearly communicates the gospel. However, I felt uncomfortable with the depiction of Christ on the cross as a Lego minifigure. I do not have a problem with artistic representations of Christ, and I don’t think that this series is irreverent or disrespectful in its overall handling of telling Bible stories with Legos. Still, the depiction of Jesus as a Lego minifigure during the crucifixion was too much for me, and that is the one reason why I am not rating this higher.
The Easter Story Brick by Brick will appeal to kids who love Legos, and it is a fun, unique way to share the Easter story. There are also instructions in the back for building your own Easter scene with three crosses and an empty tomb. Many Christian families will enjoy this book together, and because it is an inexpensive paperback, it will also be good for church outreach opportunities and children’s ministry giveaways. Overall, this book is fun without feeling too gimmicky, and it clearly explains the gospel in a way that children will understand.
