Book Review: God's Perfectly Awesome Idea: Genesis One (children's book) (OT)

God's Perfectly Awesome Idea: Genesis One, by Claudia West (Heyer Publishing, 2020, 40 pp, $17.95, ages 4-8) 

A Perfectly Awesome Book

As author Claudia West (Grammy Giggles) says, Bible stories should never be boring and this one certainly isn't! Big enough to be easily held in little hands with detailed illustrations in which little ones can search for the objects depicted in the words, God's Perfectly Awesome Idea: Genesis One is third in a series.

A children's book to remember must have a good story and memorable illustrations that help one to remember the story. Artist Elettra Cudignotto has drawn as many objects on a page as possible which are depicted in the story so it's fun to both see and hear the words and see and remember the story.

And finally, many children's book are rhyming but only a few rhyme seamlessly, a la Dr. Seuss. This book, taking us through the first chapter of Genesis, day by day humorously, tells the story in words that naturally rhyme - not an easy task for an author!

The other books in the series include The Zoo On the Seas (Noah)

and The Very Scary Pajama Drama (Daniel), while Fish Tummy Soup tells the story of a fish given a special mission by God.
