New house. New school. New problems!
Like many kids, adventurous and creative 9-year-old Abigail experiences lots of ups and downs when it comes to school life, making friends and getting on with parents and siblings. Through both the humorous and serious challenges that arise, Abigail finds herself in one new mess after another. But as she learns all about how Jesus forgave Peter when he messed up again and again, she sees how Jesus can forgive her too.
Readers will explore the Bible alongside Abigail and learn that God’s love for us and his grace to us never run out. So we can start over again and again!
This fun, exciting novel for kids aged 7+ features short chapters with illustrations that really bring the story to life. It explains grace in a kid-friendly way that is relevant to their lives, and it provides a great way for kids to engage with the Bible.
This is the first book in the Abigail series.

I purchased the Abigail series, to tutor Abigail, my pastors granddaughter, over the summer. The main character name and the smart yet sensitive plot did the trick!

My daughter (also named Abigail) just finished 3rd grade and is a bit of a reluctant reader but she has really enjoyed this book. She doesn't typically pick up chapter books on her own without some encouragement so the fact that she chose to read this book means she highly recommends it! In a world full of terrible books coming out lately it is so refreshing to have a great Christian option to encourage her walk with Christ.

My daughter read books 1 and 2 we are getting her the rest soon. I haven’t read myself but my daughter loved them! She even gifted her gently used book #1 to a friend that she knew would be blessed by it. They are currently starting at a new school this coming fall and my girl knew that Abigail and the Big Start Over: Switch Schools. Make Friends. Fix All the Mess! would be perfect for her. I’m so glad there are books like this available and interesting enough for kiddos to enjoy.
