God has so many attributes....provider, protector, all-powerful, healer, teacher, creator, and Savior. He also has names that mean just those attributes. What a precious gift to give your little one to teach him the various names and attributes of God through easy to understand examples from the Bible and scripture verses. Also included with each name for God is a brief prayer you can pray with your little one. These special attributes and names for God will help him/her better understand the One who created them and how much He loves them.
If you follow my blog, you know what a big fan of board books I am. I love how little hands can handle the book without fear of damage. This volume is no exception with its sturdy pages, slightly padded front cover and rounded corners.
I enjoyed the bright colorful illustrations but was a bit taken aback by the final illustration of Jesus returning on the white horse, hand raised as if saying "I'm here!".
I do think this book most appropriate for children at least 3 or 4 years of age in order to begin to have an understanding of the names of God and obtain a sense of what that means to them. I must admit that I had difficulty trying to figure out one of the pronunciations even with it phonetically illustrated. Other than the names of God, the language is simple enough for children younger than my recommendation.
I did receive this book free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. I found the content solid and firmly believe it is never too early to help children gain an understanding of God's love.
