This is one of those children’s books you want to read to yourself every day for the beautiful reminder it brings! Author Andrew Peterson says of it: “The words and pictures in this book tell a true story about the way God is making the world (including us) new.”
If you’re very familiar with the Bible, you’ll hear direct verses coming through the words of the story. It stays true to the Text.
Not only do I recommend owning this book, but it would also make a wonderful gift. From baby showers to birthdays to all days in between, share the joy of this book!
Isaiah 61:11
For as the earth brings forth its sprouts, and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up, so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise to sprout up before all the nations.
