ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Andrew is the creator, writer, and illustrator of the Lost Sheep series. Way back in 1989 as a young Bible college student, Andrew was asked to give the dreaded “children’s talk” at a large church. Andrew possessed one talent: he could draw sheep. He bought some overheard projector sheets and drew up the story of Cecil and the Lost Sheep. The congregation loved it, so Andrew continued to draw stories to use with kids and adults. Other student, pastors, and teachers started borrowing the stories.

These books are cute, but not my favorite in Children's Bible stories. Not crazy about the illustrations. But good stories told in an easy to understand manner.
Happy Reading!

The drawings do seem overly simplistic. If the stories are good a skilled teacher could still use the books in a lesson, especially if she made a vine puppet.
The illustrations didn't really appeal to me either.
