Review:

This hardback book is aimed at kids ages 2-5, and it is a very simple retelling of the 'Lord is my Sheherd' psalm, featuring God as our shepherd, and us as his sheep. Kids will relate to being the young lamb and straying where they shouldn't out of curiosity, but being saved by their father.

This is a LOVELY telling of the 23rd Psalm, and one that is perfect for gift giving for not only Easter, but for baptisms and christenings too! It is a simple way to introduce children to such an important part of the bible, and adults and kids alike will be entranced with the pictures. We highly recommend it!
