Primary children of all ages will recognise themselves and their classmates in these vibrant retellings of 15 of Jesus' parables. Each story has follow-up suggestions and questions designed to get the children thinking and talking about some of the issues raised by each one.

Each assembly outline is topped and tailed by a theme to help direct the teacher towards the main teaching objective of the story, and a prayer or reflection and suggested song to close the assembly if desired. Each unit also contains a teacher's page giving the Bible reference for the original parable and information to link the teaching to PSHE/Citizenship and the National Framework for RE or local SACRE guidelines.
