The Good Samaritan

This parable is taken from Luke 10:25-37.  The hatred between the Samaritans and the Jews is more complicated and deep than most of us can understand.  But when Jesus told the parable of the good Samaritan, his listeners knew the extent of what he was saying; when someone is in need, you do what you can to help, regardless of differences.  God's grace extends beyond race, beyond status, beyond education, and beyond any other condition or circumstance.  We should share God's grace in the same way.  When reading this book, discuss what a big deal it was that the Samaritan stopped to help the Jewish man.  Also, discuss ways you can both share compassion to others who are in need. 
This is the "big book" of The Parable of the Good Samaritan.  It is big enough to sit and share the book, or to show a group of children.
