Book review — 12 Things You Probably Didn’t Know About Easter

Book: 12 Things You Probably Didn’t Know About EasterAuthor: Bob LepinePublisher: 10PublishingRetail Price: £3.99 (buy now)
Review by Sheila Stephen1 minute readJanuary/February 2024

12 Things You Probably Didn’t Know About Easter

At only 68 pages, this little book lives up to its title. I didn’t know that Cadbury manufactures 500 million Crème Eggs each year or that making hot cross buns was once a criminal offence! Seriously though, alongside a lot of fun facts, this book packs an apologetical and biblical punch.

The account of the first Easter is woven through some of the answers to the common myths about Easter. Easy to read, challenging without being too demanding, this book is a must for Easter evangelism.
