With praise-filled poetry and worshipful pictures, author Glenys Nellist and illustrator C. B. Canga invite young readers and their families to revere the Lord by attuning to God’s creation song as it unfolds through the seasons: “The earth sings God a brand-new song / From grass to mountain peak, / And if you pause and close your eyes / You’ll hear the seasons speak.”
A young boy and girl hike, bike, play, climb trees, row a boat, go fishing, jump in leaves, pick pumpkins, skate, and make snow angels as they enjoy the seasons, keeping their ears tuned to creation’s praise for its Creator. The children hear creation singing that God made the raindrops, that all God made is amazing, that the ocean is made by God’s own hand, that God made the birds and they are good, that God is all around in creation, and that there is no Creator like our God.
Nellist’s latest addition to her excellent Christian books for children—others include 'Twas the Evening of Christmas ('Twas Series), Wherever You Are, Baptized in the Water, and Love Letters from God: Bible Stories—would make a worthy addition to a young child’s library, to be enjoyed again and again.
