Editorial Reviews

Colton Burpo was just four years old when, after a near death experience, he returned to tell his parents that he had been to heaven. In this children's book, Colton himself describes his experiences in the higher realm and explains how it applies to life on earth. Heaven is for Real for Kids also contains illustrations of the heavenly realms as Colton saw it; letter to parents about approaching the topic with children; and a Q&A section with Bible-based answers. (P.S. Colton's parents' Heaven is for Real has been a resilient nationwide adult bestseller.)

Publishers Weekly

The bestselling book is adapted for children, which makes sense since the story involves a child, Colton Burpo, who told his parents he visited heaven during a life-threatening surgery when he was three. Heaven is filled with angels and also animals; Colton reported playing with dogs, cats, elephants, and kangaroos, and saw Jesus riding a big white horse, to which illustrator Ong gives a rainbow mane. It’s all very kid-friendly. Parents who bought and liked the adult version of the story will likely buy this for their, or someone else’s, kids; a gift inscription page is included. Ages 4–8. (Nov. 8)
