It wasn't what I thought it was
Derived From Web , Jan 27, 2022
I was excited about my book When God made the world, that morning I received it! I loved the artwork, but when I read it, I am sad to share, I 'll return it. I understood this book by the title to be a book on creation, written for children. It is kind of, but it also brings out the obvious belief of the author in evolution, nicely mixing the two. Read it carefully... you'll notice the subtle wording. Oh, how I learned...... Read the books you plan to share, make sure that the message contained in them is really what you want to share. Which One? Nope...

Not Biblical, don't buy

The book is cute, but it is not very biblically based. I ended up throwing it out because I don 't want to read my kid books that are actively contrasting the Bible.

Evolution, Big Bang, Old Earth
Derived From Web , Aug 30, 2020
“With Cosmic Explosions, God made space in motion God made birds perhaps over time '', if needed over time. If a book claims God's name, it should be Biblically sound. We were excited to read this book with our children until enjoying it. Unfortunately, there are also some mixed beliefs written inside. This book has a mix of old earth, evolution, big bang flavors sprinkled throughout. Though the book is whimsically illustrated and inviting, we return for this reason.

It’s a good book
Derived From Web , May 2, 2020
I personally like the book very much. It goes through each aspect of creation and then goes on to discuss how to take care of this Earth. It does have a couple of phrases that are in opposition to a 7 - day creation belief.

Not a Biblical account of creation.
Derived From Web , Feb 3, 2020
This book brings up themes such evolution and a view of creation that is not a literal, 7 - day creation and emphasizes the importance of nature over man in reflecting God's image. I am not pleased with this book, as beautiful as the pictures and the verses are. I'm very disappointed ''.

lyrical poetry and gorgeous illustrations!
Derived From Web , Jan 30, 2020
In the short time, I have had this book, I shared it with many others and I have loved them all! Being able to share at any time is a reason to have the digital as well as the gorgeous printed picture book! I wish I had this book when my children were young, but thankfully as pastor I still have the opportunity to read these beautiful books during worship and education to children. I am so thankful that this book exists, as Creation is one of the stories that capture the imaginations of children over and over and they always want to know how they fit into creation. This book reflects my theology of a loving God that I want to teach the children I pass along to. This book does this “teaching†through lyrical poetry and gorgeous illustrations!

Gorgeous Book!
Derived From Web , Jan 29, 2020
Matthew Paul Turner, author of When I Pray for Youbrings, gives us a new story, centering on the creation when God made the world. This is a colorful book that captures attention with its well-drawn palette and inclusive representation of all types of children. The book is written in a poem form, with encouragement for children not only to enjoy Creation, but also to take care of it and ourselves. My son read it with me and loved that it had so many unique illustrations and pointed out his favorite sections. It is certainly a favorite at bedtime for us!
