Customer Reviews

Highly recommended!

Highly recommended for children learning their ABC's. Rather than learn that letter "M" is for Mr. Munch, why not learn "M" is for Majesty, an attribute of God? This is a fabulous book with beautiful illustrations. Parents, be sure to include a copy in your child's library.

Highly Recommended

A Child's ABC's of Praise is perfect as a devotional, backseat activity book, or an "about me" book, while still incorporating God into it all. How can you beat that? I enjoyed how Patti Wiens made God seem more like a perfect best friend than someone who is too holy for any of us to have a casual friendship with. Plus, the interactivity of this book set it apart from all the other children's books about God I've seen. It would make a great gift for the youngster in your life too, so why not get your copy today? You'll be glad you did. Reviewed by Jason

Learning about God and opening doors for bonding

Working through the alphabet one letter at a time each letter is used to point out one aspect of the nature of God and includes a related Bible verse. For example the letter D is "I praise you because you Deliver". It then provides and opportunity for discussion by asking the question "Have you ever been rescued, or needed someone's help?". The page ends with Matthew 6:13 which says "And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one." This is a wonderfully done book that opens the opportunity for discussion between parent and child. As a way to bond deeper with your child while teaching them the nature of God this is one of the best books I have seen. A Child's ABCs of Praise is highly recommended.

Designed to help young folks learn how to talk to God

Patti Wien's A Child's ABCs Of Praise is a 60-page, 8 1/2" by 11", "family keepsake" book in which children will discover the character of God through the defining of twenty-six descriptive words ranging from All-Ruler and Creator, to Deliverer and Friend. Captivating photographic collages offer imagery that defines the terms and catches the eye. Written by an active participant in children's and women's ministry, A Child's ABCs Of Praise is a deeply spiritual book that skillfully blends learning the alphabet to with learning how to love and praise God. A collection of prayer-starters at the end, such as "Dear Jesus, A rose is beautiful and so is a smile, but I know that You are the most beautiful of all. Amen." is designed to help young folks learn how to talk to God.
