“The Plan of Happiness is our personal favorite and my 4 and 6 year old ask for it to be read to them regularly. David Bowman has a true genius for packaging gospel concepts in a way that is very easy for children to digest and understand and leaves them loving what they are learning and with a passion and hunger to dig deeper and know more. He does not stray from core doctrine and true principles but manages to make them a lot of fun to learn about.”

This books goes over pre-mortal, mortal and post mortal life in a fun engaging, but very reverent way. If a parent reads this often with their child in their childhood they would have a VERY good understanding of the BIG PICTURE as far the plan of salvation goes. It includes details about the war in heaven, choices to make on earth, the spirit world, judgment day and the three kingdoms. Excellent, excellent book as are ALL of David Bowman’s books.
