Book excerpt: In a clunky, blue and white VW bus, meet fun and quirky Mr. Caleb who sings and plays the guitar, likes to eat fruits and vegetables, and loves to praise the Lord. He also walks just about everywhere barefoot. He runs in the snow, jumps in rain puddles, and hops on hot sidewalks! With a colorful hat always adorning his head, patriotic Mr. Caleb finds himself constantly in sticky situations and hilarious mishaps that will leave kids and their parents laughing. From receiving an electrical shock to stepping on slimy toads, discover how this young, modern-day hippie's barefoot lifestyle inspires a deeper walk with the Lord. Kids will be delightfully entertained and clearly exposed to scriptural truths through the comical introduction of Meet Mr. Caleb. Written for children ages 4 to 7, this first book of the Mr. Caleb early reader series uses humor and laughter to help make learning scriptural principles fun and enjoyable. Thoughtful applications, scripture memory verses, and family activities follow the story to encourage deeper spiritual understanding for kids. The follow-up is specifically designed to broaden children's awareness beyond self to thinking externally in family and world applications. Meet Mr. Caleb also strives to make learning about the Bible a fun, shared family experience. Family involvement plays a crucial role in children's learning. To facilitate such shared family activity and bonding, a family therapy technique of cooking is utilized in a follow-up section. This section uses cooking to reinforce Biblical learning through family involvement with shared time, interaction, and discussion. In addition, with an increasing trend towards healthier eating for children, parents will appreciate these healthy recipes that are low in fat and promote natural ingredients.
