Review: Five Little Dumplings - The Real Easter Story

Five Little Dumplings: The Real Easter Story book cover on blue background

I was so excited to learn about Five Little Dumplings: The Real Easter Story by Kelsey Chen, a new-to-me Chinese Christian author, just in time for Easter. Thank you, Liwen Y. Ho, for introducing me to the Five Little Dumplings! It's such a treat to read children's books again and to recall all that I learnt from my library days about what goes into a well-written book for younger readers. This book definitely checks those boxes 😊

Book Synopsis

Book Thoughts

What an engaging and helpful book for children to better learn about Jesus and Easter! This interactive book presents different skill-building activities for children to keep their attention, such as identifying colours, numbers, and patterns. The rhymes are simple, the illustrations are eye-catching, and the story is delightful in this educational book. The Bible verses included make Scripture more familiar, especially when paired with corresponding images. The dumplings are an adorable way for little readers to celebrate Easter. This is a book that is eminently re-readable as it can help with Scripture memorization, making the Little Dumplings a series to keep an eye out for as they go on various adventures.

Releasing on November 10, 2026, Unexpectedly Falling for Us by Elizabeth Trent  captures the remnants of the autumn season by wrapping itself around readers like a warm sweater. This fourth book in the Us series shares grace and truth, packaged together in loving guidance from friends and family. Many thanks to the author for providing a complimentary copy of this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own. Book Synopsis One fake relationship. Two guarded hearts. Real feelings neither planned for. Sariah I should have stayed out of his world. Jackson West is charming, handsome, and has the kind of reputation I know better than to trust. But when one unexpected moment turns into a fake relationship to quiet curious family members, pretending becomes more complicated than either of us expected.
