Review
You need this little book on your church library shelf; on your bedside table and on your gift list. It's so good! It's a gentle read with such a good message, one we have all heard but which we often ignore, thinking we can handle our problems, or life's little bumps, by ourselves. We can't! This book is a tool: To help give us personal insight; For group discussion; A way to reaffirm our faith in our Savior's greatness. (Barbara Rupach The Lamplighter )

5.0 out of 5 stars Take off your shoes!, August 19, 2006
From the first time I heard the title, I knew I wanted to read this book. I was not disappointed. With topics ranging from childlike faith to childlike worship, Dennis helps us see God through the eyes of a child and gives us a picture of the Father/daughter relationship He desires to have with each of us. Each chapter ends with "Child's Play"--specific steps we can take to peel away the layers of adulthood and love Him with childlike abandon. So grab the book, take off your shoes, and get ready to become a Daddy's girl!

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm running!, June 26, 2006
By Jill M. Rigby (Baton Rouge, LA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Jeanne Gowen Dennis has reminded me that God delights in a childlike faith...trusting, secure, and dependent. Thank you, Jeanne, for this fresh perspective.

5.0 out of 5 stars beautifully written, August 31, 2006
I loved Dennis's first chapter on child-like wonder. In this busy world we need to stop and enjoy what is all around us, seeing the intricate, the beautiful, the simple joys as a child might.

I enjoyed this book, it had a lot of insight and things for you to try in everyday life. But, it would be best if done in a group, like an adult Sunday school class.
