This book was a miss. I just didn't enjoy the text nor the illustrations.

With a 2-page spread per animal, this picture book has simple text and presents a survey of the creatures who populate the pages of the bible. These diverse creatures offer a way for children to discover Bible stories that God has given us.

It came unbound and was difficult to read. I was hoping to share it with my class, but it wasn't worth the time or effort. ( )

My kids and I enjoyed the simple yet colorful artwork, but the text seemed a bit flat. While I didn't expect a connected narrative, I thought the language would have been more poetic. I was disappointed that it arrived as an unbound galley, because part of enjoying a book is its feel and the way the pages turn. I'd recommend it for young children who will appreciate the artwork, but school-aged children may be a bit bored with the simple passages. ( )

This book came unbound as a ER copy of the text. The illustrations are vibrant and lively and they got a lot of animals in there. I don't think the text was very cohesive or very child friendly/useful when I read it with my son. In short: pretty, but neither this adult nor his child reader got too much enjoyment out of it. I was expecting something a little more magical. ( )
