Genre: Children's Book/Fiction
Pages: 17

Synopsis:

Who made God? Who created heaven?” “How big is God?” Every curious mind wonders about these questions – especially young minds. So what do we do when asked questions that do not have simple answers? Rocketships to Heaven and the SOS Fuel Station is a vehicle to begin the conversation. This eye-opening journey begins with a dialogue between a boy and his mother. He is allowed to find answers within himself. The child’s toy rocketship becomes a conduit for his faith in God. By traveling in the rocketship to the Save-Our-Souls Fuel Station, he fills the spiritual tank needed for the trip to heaven. This enlightening tale demonstrates the remarkable ability of children to take hugely complex concepts and absorb the multifaceted ideas well enough to make the notions their own. Using the down-to-earth toy rocketship, Rocketships to Heaven and the SOS Fuel Station begins a lifelong dialogue of faith that will soar alongside the child and parents for years. The questions of belief and conviction will be ever constant in a life of a Christian and so will the relevance of the ideas presented in this story.

Rocketships to Heaven and the SOS Fuel Stations

This is a cleverly written book that answers some of the questions children ask about their very existence and what happens when they die. It also is a wonderful diversion into the very question of our existence and how we got here and what love is. This book is a conversation between a mother and her son tackling some of the very tough questions that all of us grapple with, how we got here, how do we know what love is, where do we go when we die? It is a carefully guided step by step lesson on how to teach a child about religion.

Ms. Yarber has taken a leap into the realm of children’s books and has definitely left a footprint. Rocketships to Heaven and the SOS Fuel Stations should be a must read on any Sunday School reading list!

Peggy Sue Yarber is an educator and mother and drew upon her own experiences when writing this book.
