Miranda and Mason think it’s funny that I want to “show the camera” the book I am reading.

The Story:

The wording is directly from Psalm 136 in the Bible. The chosen illustrations help the children to visualize and understand what that part of scripture is talking about. At the end of the reading, there is musical notes that can be played so that this Psalm could be sung and has an illustration of people wearing modern clothing standing and singing in church.

Mason is getting a closer look at an illustration while I read to him and Miranda.

Miranda’s Opinion:

“I really liked to look at the pictures and wondered if the boat was going into the big cave or coming out of it.”

Miranda was very curious about the boat and this “cave”. Was the boat going in or coming out?

Mason’s Opinion:

“Yeah, it was good. The pictures are nice.”

 

Mitchell’s Opinion:

He doesn’t talk much as he recently turned two, but he did recognize some things in the pictures and would point at them and say what they were. On the page with the sheep, he pointed at them and said “Baaa” to sound like a sheep. So he was definitely into it. There were a few times he would get down and go do something else, then he would come back and look at the pictures again.

 

My Opinion:

I love to have big hardcover books with large vibrant illustrations for my children to look at. This book really brings Psalm 136 to life in my little one’s minds so they can visualize what is being said in this reading. I highly recommend it if you have children from age 2 up to 3rd grade. I am very happy to own it and I think my next little one (due in a few months) will enjoy it for years to come as well!
