In God's Name

Summary: I don't know a better children's book!
Review: Characters in the book share their name for God and in the end they all learn that God's specific name is not so important as their being respectful of each other's choices for God's name. Children and adults should enjoy this book. The illustrations are wonderful and the story is simple, yet very meaningful. This would be a great gift to share with friends of different faiths: a good way to let someone know that you are not prejudiced agianst their religious belief system...

Summary: A must!
Review: Children are open and honest about what they believe. This is a wonderful book allowing us -- especially adults -- to see the many ways that God is revealed in this world. Through this beautifully illustrated and well-written children's book, we are able to see the "origins" of our different names for God. This is both a book of inclusion and a book of discovery. I have used this book with children and with adults -- as children discover and adults re-discover the way God is revealed in our world. Enjoy!

Summary: A special gift for a godchild
Review: I have four godchildren and have given each of them a copy of this book. The pictures are lovely, the story is poignant and the message is loving and true. I highly recommend this book and it will surely become a favorite for the child/godchild in your life.

Summary: Naming God
Review: I used this book for a Children's Sermon at our church on Mother's day. The children couldn't get close enough when I began reading. Most of the adults in the congregation were as entranced as the children.
Beautifully written and richly illustrated this is a book to share with family and friends.
What an excellent way to help children learn (and remind adults) that there are countless names for God.
