Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Every child develops an image of God by age 5, say spiritual experts. This simple, beautiful book will help you and your child explore spirituality together for the first time.

For people of all faiths, all backgrounds. Based on the award-winning picture book In God's Name.

Much has been written about the importance of reading simple, beautiful books to babies and preschoolers to stimulate brain development. But perhaps even more important, what you read begins to shape your child's world, and creates the images that will remain with him or her throughout life.

We read books to our children about letters, numbers, shapes, colors and safety, but do we give their minds the early food they need to think about life's bigger questions? As spiritual development experts now tell us, each child develops an image of God by age 5, with or without religious instruction. What is God's Name? takes you and your child on an imaginative journey designed to help you open not only your child's mind, but your child's heart and soul as well.

About the Author
Sandy Eisenberg Sasso is Rabbi of Congregation Beth-El Zedeck in Indianapolis. She is active in the interfaith community and has written and lectured on the renewal of spirituality and the discovery of religious imagination in children of all faiths. She is the second woman to be ordained as a rabbi (1974) and the first rabbi to become a mother.

She is also the author of A Prayer for the Earth,God in Between, But God Remembered, In God's Name and God's Paintbrush (Jewish Lights Publishing).

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully illustrated and written, March 26, 2000
By A Customer
I have enjoyed this book with my five year old and 20 month old. The illustrations are bright and bold and the book describes the origins of God's name. It is clear, understandable and inspirational for young and old alike. I highly recommend this as a godparent gift in board book for younger children and hardback for older children.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely Illustrations, December 19, 2006
My baby loves this book, especially the pages with the mother and father. It manages to be diverse and inclusive without seeming stilted or preachy. Lovely little book.

4.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful book, January 17, 2009
By MYOB (Radford, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This is a beautiful book. I just wish I had known that it was essentially just an abridged board-book edition of her other book, In God's Name, I didn't need to buy both.
