The Good Samaritan

Joy is so hungry that she’s reluctant to share a pizza with some needy children. Superbook takes Joy, Chris and Gizmo to meet Jesus, who tells the parable of the Good Samaritan. Witness how a wounded man is ignored by important men, then rescued by a foreigner who is despised by local people. The children learn the importance of caring for others—and that all people are our neighbors.
