Grandmother Alvena McCormick, a longtime studio artist at the Torpedo Factory Art Center in Alexandria, Virginia, is the art director. Her son Mike is the author. His children Jack, Sophia, and Matthew were the inspiration for his narrative. The color illustrations are Sophia and Matthew's hand-painted expressions of the everyday kid adventures they imagined Young Jesus having. Each childhood experience ends with a New Testament passage that gives the reader a deeper understanding of adult Jesus's teachings as proclaimed in the Bible. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReaders whether young or old will delight in the colorful drawings and simple examples of Young Jesus living God His Father's Word as he climbs trees, bakes treats with Mother Mary, or fishes with Father Joseph. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the McCormick Family's first publication of Young Jesus, more editions are in the works.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.08 x 10 x 8 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 12, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42719423103039,"sku":"9781733714679","price":16.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/86e99c57a9f3f90342eba56d0c39e642.webp?v=1765085573","url":"https:\/\/dhl-adrianne.myshopify.com\/products\/young-jesus-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
