Children are genetically programmed to soak up as much informaton about the world as possible. This makes them extremely credible and thus vulnerable to the sort of disgraceful brainwashing that books like this promote. Children will trust what their parents say implicitly which is why it is so unfair on them to inculcate their tiny brains with rubbish like this before they are old enough to make their own rational decisions based on their experience. There is no such thing as a 'godly' or Christian or Muslim child. After all you wouldn't call a doctor's daugher a doctor before they had thought about and chosen a career. Any parent who buys this book and follows its advice is doing their child a great disservice. If they want to be religious when they are older fair enough but don't force it on them when they don't fully understand the content or implications.
