The book of Esther is one of the Bible's most gripping dramas. But how do you teach it to your kids?

Tucked between Nehemiah and Job, Esther reads like a palace thriller-a beauty contest, a genocidal plot, a villain who builds his own gallows, and a queen who risks everything to save her people. It's the only book in the Bible that never mentions God's name. Not once.

But this unusual book turns out to be one of Scripture's clearest pictures of providence. It's the story of what happens when ordinary people find themselves in extraordinary circumstances-and discover that ""coincidences"" aren't coincidental at all. It's about an orphan girl who becomes queen, a faithful man who refuses to bow, and a God who works behind the scenes even when no one speaks his name.

What Is the Book of Esther? makes this suspenseful story come alive for today's young readers. Written in a warm, conversational style that captures the drama without losing the depth, this guide walks through all ten chapters of Esther with:

Whether your child is learning to stand up for what's right, wondering if God is really there when life gets hard, or ready to explore one of the Bible's most dramatic books, What Is the Book of Esther? will show them that the God who turned Haman's plot upside down is still working in the ""coincidences"" of their own lives.

Perfect for family reading, church classes, or independent study.
