Every day is an adventure for a child. Some days are exciting and fun...other days are hard. Like the sparrow, children often discover it's hard to be small. Like the skunk, they sometimes act like... This description may be from another edition of this product.
We borrowed this book from the library and it was SO good, we HAD to buy it. My two-year old now brings it to me and says, "Read, Mommy. Night-night." when he wants to go to sleep. It has become his favorite book (and this kid is quite the literary man for 2). It's so wonderfully written it makes Mommy tear up when she reads it and makes us both feel better. Falling asleep with thoughts of God in your head is ideal. We also pray for every type of "animal" (person) in the book. It's a wonderful story. I hope you enjoy it as much as we have!

I think this is one of the best children's books around. I have a 6 yr old and a 2 yr old - and we have MANY books - but this is my favorite, and my 2 yr old's favorite too. It is a wonderful part of a bedtime ritual!
A MUST HAVE for a kids book collection

This book is so popular with my 3 year old, that we are still reading it daily after 6 months. She has it memorized and can "read" it to me. The illustrations are wonderful, and the text is simple but meaningful. Even older kids will appreciate the messages in this book. This is a book that you will keep and hand down for your grandchildren.
Mom of a one-year old in Texas

This book is just great! My husband and I were looking for a way to introduce God to our toddler, and I came across this book. My one-year old loves the rhymes and the pictures, and asks me to read it over and over again. Each page shows a different characteristic of our loving God, in ways that a tiny child can understand. I am buying several copies to give to friends and family with small children. It is just exactly what I need!
Safely fall asleep with thoughts of God's love

Children and parents will both be soothed at bedtime with these gentle rhymes about God's loving care for each baby animal. A number of little animals were forgiven by God for less than perfect behavior that day. As a counselor, I welcome these messages that help both parents and kids feel better about themselves after a hard day. This is great for single parents as all illustrations show just one parent.
