Penny, indeed a challenge! Though my 5yr old has got a start. She ran up to me and told me she stuck two dead crickets in the freezer. Turns out she wasn't lying. My children are wanting chocolate covered grasshoppers :
Penny, it's a specialty of Beatrix Potter's. I see grasshoppers as survival food-wouldn't eat unless I had to. I guess if it ever came to that, might as well try ladybird sauce?!
We're having roasted grasshopper and lady-bird sauce for supper tonight. Our dear friends Mr. Jeremy Fisher, Mr. Alderman Ptolemy Tortoise, and Sir Issac Newton are joining us. Regardless of what Beatrix Potter thinks it's really quite delicious!

No need for a "children's bible.." we read ours the KJV. They're quite capable of understanding (as much as possible). I see no reason to dumb the word down and put it on the same level as Winnie the Pooh. It's not another "children's story" but the living word of God. Not that you implied that. Just my two cents on "childrens bibles".
Dorcas, I did read it but I have this blessing called mommy brain. I'm slowly learning I'm not an elephant. Bummer. :/ Anyways, my thoughts are that we are to call sin, sin but am an agreement that we aren't to be contemptuous.....hopefully that clears things up? Or perhaps I've just muddied the water?
