Pip, Tommo, and Big Bart are Jesus' funniest disciples.

Not heard of them? Why ever not?

According to Bob Hartman, they attended the wedding of Canna. They meet the Roman Centurion. They saw Jesus raise the widow's son at Nain. They even watched a flock of demonic pigs fly off a cliff edge!

These seven child-friendly stories certainly won't be told from the pulpit, but they will give your 8-11 aged kids the infectious chuckles. The individual stories can be read separately or in one big adventure. 'Best Mates' has the winning combination of hand-written scribbles and slightly gross tales that kids love to read again and again.

Your primary schools kids will find 'Best Mates' laugh-out-loud funny. But alongside the humour, the master storyteller Bob Hartman sheds new light on Jesus through the unlikely trio of hap-hazard pals as they see a man who does the most amazing things and ask - is this the Messiah?

Why not buy 'Best Mates Too' aswell? With another seven brilliant stories, your kids will be chuckling their way into adolescences.

Bob Hartman is one of Britain's most accomplished children's writers. Bob has written a rainbow of popular children's books, including the much-loved children’s bible: 'The Lion Storyteller Bible'.
