This book helps children see, in language they can understand, how resisting sin is possible only through the work of Christ and the power of the Spirit. You'll want this book in your home, in your children's ministry, and in your school."

"We've all been in Lucy's shoes: seeing something that someone has and wanting it too. Melissa Kruger helps us put words to that temptation so we can help our children grow and change. Lucy and the Saturday Surprise is a wonderful story and provides a lesson that will help kids for the rest of their lives."
--Trillia Newbell, author, Jesus and the Gift of Friendship; The Big Wide Welcome; and God's Very Good Idea
