Book Cover & Preview Text
After a busy day at church, it was bedtime at the William’s house. Mr. Williams First said “goodnight” to his daughters who were already in bed waiting for him.
“Goodnight, Audrey. Goodnight, Alice.”
“Night, Daddy.”
When he went to his son’s room, Mr. Williams found him sitting on the bed, looking out the window.
“Bedtime, Cole. Son, what are you doing?”
Without turning his head, Cole replied, “Looking for heaven.”
“Looking for heaven?” his dad asked.
“Uh Huh! The song at church tonight said heaven came down, so I want to see where it is.”
Mr. Williams smiled and said, “Cole, the song didn’t mean that heaven actually came down here. It meant that Jesus came to earth to give us salvation by dying on the cross for our sins.”
“Oh. OK,” replied Cole, sadly.
“You seem disappointed. What’s wrong?” Mr. Williams asked.
“Nothing, I just wanted to see what it looked like, that’s all.” Cole started to get into bed.
Mr. Williams smiled as he walked towards Cole’s bed. “Well, the Bible does tell us what heaven looks like.”
Cole became very excited; he could hardly believe it! “Really? With pictures?” he asked.

About the Book
Streets of gold, a river as clear as crystal, and Jesus Himself—these three and so many more wonderful things are waiting for us in that place the Bible calls Heaven. As a father explains all the glories of that city to his son using the simplest of means—his son’s toys—we are all reminded of the beauty and wonder of Heaven.
About the Author
Ann Dunn became inspired to create an illustrated children’s book about Heaven back in 2002. Being the mother of three children—ages ten, nine, and six—and a preschool teacher, Ann’s desire for this book grew even more because she wanted her children and her young students to know that Heaven is a wonderful place. Finally after fourteen years, the Lord opened the doors for the project to come to pass. Her desire is that all who read this book—children and adults—will be amazed at all that God has prepared for them.
