Book Review and Giveaway: Goodnight Ark by Laura Sassi Illustrated by Jane Chapman


My Review:
Laura Sassi has created a humorous story that made me giggle throughout!   This story is not your typical Noah and Ark story because it is fictional but really made me curious as to what it was like on the Ark.   So there was a storm and the animals were scared so they snuck into Noah's bed until... I can't spoil the big laugh so you will have to read the book. 

On top of the wonderful story there was some rhyming that made it fun to read.   My kids and I also love the artwork that Jane Chapman has created.   The pictures are bright and colorful and draws you in and helped capture the humor in it.  

I think this is a great story to have fun and discuss on top of the true story of Noah and the Ark.  :)

Book Review: "God I feel Scared"

Kids have big feelings, but none of their feelings are too big for God. In this picture book from licensed counselor Michelle Nietert and Tama Fortner, young readers will explore what it means to feel scared and discover how to manage their emotions in a healthy way. Scared is a feeling that can be hard to face, but if we listen to it, we can learn things about ourselves. In  God, I Feel Scared , children will discover that it’s okay to be scared and that God is with us in all things, including fear. With simple, accessible text, scared becomes an emotion that kids don’t need to avoid and instead something they can use to better understand themselves and grow closer to God. The bright, emotive art by Nomar Perez will draw kids in, and a note in the back provides tips and techniques parents and caregivers can use to help young children process their feelings in a beneficial way. God, I Feel Scared  teaches kids ages 4 to 8 how to: Identify the feeling of fear and recognize thin...
