The Bible is full of stories that teach us to dream big, be curious, be courageous, and be ourselves. And who better to impart these lessons to children than biblical characters?

Dream Big, Laugh Often contains images of and words of wisdom from fourteen Biblical figures, including Abraham and Sarah, Moses and Miriam, David and Goliath, and more. On every page, Hanoch Piven crafts unique portraits of these biblical characters from everyday found objects children will delight in recognizing. The accompanying text describes the values and character traits each character embodies. This is a perfect religious-interest book for Jewish and Christian readers, and for those looking for a fresh and playful take on character education.
