Arlo and the Great Big Cover-Up

Beautiful Illustrations Simple Story A Lesson on Repentance and Grace

Arlo knows better than to get out of bed during rest time. And he definitely isn't allowed to draw on the wall. But Arlo does it anyway, and then desperately attempts to cover up his disobedience before his mom finds out. When his efforts fail, Arlo discovers not only the misery that comes from hiding his sin but also the relief that comes through confessing it. With easy-to-understand language and engaging illustrations, children will learn important lessons with Arlo about repentance and the forgiveness found only in Jesus.

TGC Kids illustrated storybooks engage the hearts and imaginations of kids aged 3-7 by teaching them biblical truths about how to live and grow as God's children in today's culture. Published in partnership with the Gospel Coalition.
