What a treasure
I bought this book months ago after reading the book about Psalms that the author wrote in a
Barnes and Noble and purchasing it from Amazon. My son is in Kindergarten, so the reading
level is appropriate. The pictures in both books are stunning and evoke an appreciation of the
art itself and how it relates to the psalms and images of God.
This book in particular I have bought and given as gifts to our ES principal – Christian school –
and overall campus minister at the school. I also have adult friends who have bought the book
because of the power and imagery of the prose.
The author and illustrator are truly gifted and I continue to be appreciate this book each time we
read it as a family or even on my own.
I look forward to other works by the author.
Fantastic book for kids!
This is one of the finest resources I have found to express spiritual truths to children. I am a
Pastor and bought this for my daughter to read to my 3 year old granddaughter. They both love
it![/has_review]
