Five-Star Review For Who Made the Morning?

Annie Galvin-Teich — Sun, 13 Apr 2008 13:45:27 +0000

April 13, 2008 - “God is all around us, little brown bird!”

Curious as a child, and just as impetuous, little brown bird just wants someone to explain “Who made the morning”? While most of his friends are just happy to accept it as it is, he really wants an answer. Like many a seeker, brown bird gets so involved in the search he almost loses his way. The beautiful illustrations support this gentle loving story that begs to be read aloud.

Midwest Book Review: Who Made the Morning?

Annie Galvin-Teich — Sat, 05 Apr 2008 11:47:11 +0000

“The thoughtful colorful illustrations add the perfect touch to this picturebook with a resounding religious moral.”

Who Made the Morning is a Christian picturebook that embodies children’s questions about God in a charming storybook format. When Little Brown Bird wonders ‘Who is God?’, her question takes her on journey farther than she’s ever been before, in a quest to learn about and thank the God who made the morning. “‘Did you find God, the maker of all the world?’ asked the chattering birds when she reached her tall, tall tree. ‘Yes,’ Little Brown Bird chirped happily. ‘God was with me in all the places I went and he looked after me. God the maker of all the world is with me all the time, wherever I go.’” The thoughtful colorful illustrations add the perfect touch to this picturebook with a resounding religious moral, highly recommended for Christian children’s libraries.
