3.0 out of 5 stars
nice little book for toddlers, October 17, 2009
This review is from: God Made the World (God Made...) (Board book)
As a father of four girls (currently ages 6 - 23 months), I'm constantly keeping an eye out for good Christian kids' books. Every toddler loves a boardbook, and the "God Made" series by Michael Vander Klipp, are excellent books for little hands.
The books are colorful, with a rainbow "handle" of sorts, that fits little fingers nicely. Each small page (and the book is small, measuring apx. 5 by 4 inches) has a beautiful picture and a word. "God Made Stones" with a picture of stones. "God Made Flowers" with a picture of flowers. The pictures are clear and sharp, and the colors in the book are bright.
The books have a simple God-ward message. There are other books with animals and natural objects in them. These books focus on the fact that God made the things we see. A little heart can begin to see God's hand behind everything their eye discovers.
At the end of each book, a pertinent Bible verse is shared. Jer. 10:12 for this book. The Scripture verse is taken from the New International Reader's Version to be simple for young children. Three other books are available in the series: God Made Food, God Made Animals and God Made My Body.
The books seem as durable as any boardbook, and they include a spiritual message. I recommend these books for little children particularly ages 18 months through 3 years.
My thanks go out to Leslie Paladino of Kregel, for giving me this book to review.

Cute book but so tiny for the price I paid., December 20, 2008
This review is from: God Made the World (God Made...) (Board book)
I purchased a set of these God made books. The illustrations are adorable. The book would be perfect if only bigger. I was expecting a normal size book when I ordered them and was only disappointed because they were so very tiny. Tiny is good if you want to stick them in your purse, but I feel the price should be much lower for so tiny a book. Normal size books for the price I paid would have gotten five stars and a great review! :)
