My Review:
My kids have sat down with this book just paging through the pages in awe of the splendid pictures. This book is one that is going to keep your son or daughter busy for some time... which is always a positive when it is a book and involves learning and God.

I love all the facts that are in this book but the best part is still the focus on reminding the reader that God is such a creative and awesome creator. With every page I had that focus of how creative and mighty my God truly is that I wanted to keep reading and find out how many species of another animal there are.

This book is one that will please many age groups! It is a must have for any homeschooling mom that wants to add more science with a christian focus.

Thanks Zondervan for sending me this book in exchange for an honest review. I was not paid for this review and all opinions are 100% mine.

Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way.
