Overview:

In the beginning of creation, all is at peace, the elements of the earth (air, water, earth and fire) as well as the inhabitants (Adam and Eve). The Story of Us shows readers in a beautifully artistic way the pathway from peace to chaotic mess to the arrival of the Restorer and the redemption and healing He brings. Creation rebels against us just as we rebelled against God. This is a thought provoking book that will require some interaction between the young readers and the adults reading with them.

Rating:

4 out of 5

Suggested audience:

Ages 3-8

Christian impact:

In a very artistic manner, the Biblical events from Creation to restoration are demonstrated for children.
