The workbook on the Gospel of Mark will be welcomed by all who are looking for reading material which children themselves can use. Mark’s account of the life and teachings of Jesus Christ is a good starting point for more serous study. By means of questions, with spaces left for written answers, the reader has to ‘work’ as well as take-in. The result is a book helpful for either the home or the classroom.  Four additional helps are included:

  1. Tips for teachers
  2. Special Projects
  3. A glossary
  4. Four specially designed maps.
