This nursery rhyme picture book is an excellent introduction of the story of creation to young children. It is beautifully illustrated and very well-written. The recurring patterns of words and sentences make it easy for toddlers to guess what the next line is or how a certain sentence ends, making them more involved with the reading. The simple child-friendly text is perfectly complemented by pictures that are clean, clear, and help reinforce the ideas presented in words. One of the many challenges of writing a good picture book is to create a balance between words and illustrations, and that balance is just right in this book. And if anyone in the family has some basic piano knowledge, they can use the simple sheet music provided at the end of the book to make this story come to life as a performance piece. Christian families with young children are sure to enjoy this picture book.
