A Book to Savor!

This children's picture book was designed for children ages 4-8. The story of creation is told in rhyme. Pictures illustrate each day's creation climaxing with God's creation of the Sabbath, the seventh day, a day of rest. This is a book to savor, to read thoughtfully as God's plan of creation is unfolded.

This book is so fun!!!

"When the World Was New" has become a favorite in our home. Our son just loves this book!!! We have read many creation stories and have found this one to be the best version we have seen thus far. I highly recommend it!

Inspired text, fantastic illustrations - WONDERFUL!!!

I enjoy reading this book as an adult, as much as my child enjoys hearing it. It is a wonderful, God-inspired, telling of the story of Creation. It captures both the order and exuberance of the earth's beginnings as told in Genesis. The author chooses an "as if you were there" perspective, to make you feel you are viewing the awesome works of The Creator. The text is written in very natural, unforced ryhme, and the colorful illustrations make the words come to life. The majesty of Creation as told in WHEN THE WORLD WAS NEW, will move a reader of any age. BUY IT!
