My Review:
Two of my kids read this book themselves, and I read it out loud to one. This book has a nice little story line. I enjoyed reading it out loud. We all loved the illustrations. God Gave Us The World is a hardcover book, that I think would make a great gift.
The last page of the book shows the other books in the series. My kids requested that I get them all. I think wanting to get the other books in a series is the highest praise a book can get.
