Loved it!! Here's why: This book was based on the NIV Translation Bible. However, for children, it was synopsized into easy-to-understand- Biblical concepts. Beautifully illustrated, I could not help but look for the little lamb and bunny and often the mouse on each and every page. The book included the lamb because it was all about a Shepherd herding lambs. Naturally the lamb not being part of the book's illustration would clearly have been remiss. I really did feel this book included animals as well as people as being important to God. One of the chapters depicted a kitty and dog in the group of children with adults. This inclusion made me smile as I realized that this book clearly would help young children to not only appreciate the story of Noah's Ark but to understand the importance of Adam naming all the animals in Genesis! God truly does care about all of His creation.
Clearly, the emphasis in this book is on the parents going beyond the beautifully illustrated storybook - into their own Bibles to read the Gospel accounts listed in each chapter to their children out loud. I so happily cheered as each book and chapter was listed for further reference. For truly parents are the only ones to guide, disciple and mentor their children in the things of God!
This book was a wonderful example of allowing one to enjoy the beauty of God's creation in the context of the Bible. I became a bit emotional upon finiishing this book because I do not have my own child to read this amazing book with - - but I will hopefully pass along to parents who will no doubt for years to come - enjoy reading Really Woolly Bible Stories to their own children. Hopefully this amazing book will be placed in the Hope Chest to be passed along to the next generation. It is that good. Thank you Dayspring for a beautiful book to be read by all!!!
