Love Is



Zondervan has created a delightful book illustrating 1 Corinthians 13 set within the context of nature and the animal world. Each page is a visual treat that draws children into each colorful illustration by Paola Escobar.  There is so much to see on each page that it will take multiple readings to discover all its beauty.

What better text than Scripture to fill a young child's mind with? The setting of nature offers opportunities to explore the animal kingdom, discussing animals and the natural world. Nature is the perfect backdrop for the "Love" chapter of the Bible for Creation is certainly an obvious expression of the Father's love for us.

I hope that Zondervan will publish more books using Biblical text. Planting God's Word in a child's heart and mind at an early age is one of the greatest literary gifts we can give them. This would make a beautiful addition to any home, school, or church library.
