This book is wonderful for family members of all ages, even if you're not particularly religious. God is portrayed as a kind and gentle being with a sense of humor. God seems to have created the world when he was in quite a playful mood, and this book quickly became my four year old son's favorite anytime story. I anticipate many years of warm fuzzies from this book and highly recommend it to any and all parents of families who believe in God as our creator.

This humorous telling of the Creation story will delight and enthrall children and adults. It's a must have for church, home and public libraries! God is truly a "creative Creator!"

What a fun, creative re-telling of the Bible's creation story! It shows a "fun" side of God that captivates kids and makes them think. The artist's rendering of God shows a friendly, approachable man with white hair. The people at the end of the book are wonderfully multi-racial. After God creates them he tells them, "...if you want me, speak my name. Remember, I made you for company, for me and for each other. So we could love each other. And I will never forget you.," And on the last page he says, "You may not see me, but I'll be here...".

My 5 year old son and I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It is beautifully illustrated, funny and warm. Its a beautiful way to share the story of our creation with our children. I loved it!

I absolutely love this book. Martha Whitmore Hickman does a wonderful job of telling the story of creation in such a delightful way. I have bought several copies and given them as gifts. Definitely a keepsake!
