Andrew’s Armor by Jill Monaco – Review by Elizabeth Sanchez

Andrew’s Armor by Jill Monaco
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Andrew’s Armor was not what I expected, but I enjoyed reading it to my son. Andrew is a young boy, who has a toy chest filled to the brim. One of his favorite toys is his armor- dress up. He has a helmet, shield and sword. When he has those in hand, he goes on great adventures and feels brave and courageous. But then one day he gets hurt while wearing the armor, and it looses all its magic. It takes a while for him to get it back, and with the help of scripture. This is what I did not expect- I missed the God part of the book description. Despite not being religious, the book has good meaning behind it. Most of the illustrations are wonderful, but the beginning, I thought Andrew’s parents were siblings. They look incredibly young. There are a lot of activities at the end, that I didn’t read, because again- not religious.
