AND GOD CREATED SQUASH: How The World Began
by Martha Whitmore Hickman. Great color illustrations by Giuliano Ferri. Condition: UNREAD, but lightly perused on the shelf, 1994 Whitman soft cover, second printing. Pale short diagonal crease bottom front cover corner. Interior clean & tight. Content: In this quietly amusing interpolation of the creation story, a childlike, mirthful God in a halcyon Garden of Eden talks himself into a magnificent world. With impish eyes surrounded by a fuzzy cloud of beard and hair, his enraptured thoughts turn, one by one, into things. Then, a peculiar infatuation, borrowed from other creation traditions, captures him: squash. "I like that name . . . I think I'll use it again. Acorn squash. Butternut squash. Even zucchini squash. I might have a game and call it squash. Or put my hand on something and press down hard and call that squash." Saving the best for last, God ends by fashioning some company for himself--something, "well, more like me." While some underwhelmed adults may not tune in to the fun of this rendition, children will delight in the endless naming of species and guess-what-comes-next descriptions. Glowing as if floodlit, Ferri's soft, sunny watercolor and colored pencil illustrations embody the utter beneficence, if not the omnipotence, of a God children may accept as their friend. [Note: While this has been called "whimsical," many people might find it a bit irreverent. I like it, but . . .you might not.] Ages 4-8. [1 copy available]

BEHOLD THE TREES
by Sue Alexander. Beautiful soft color illustrations by Leonid Gore. Condition: PLEASE READ - UNREAD, BUT NOT PERFECT, 2001 Levine hardcover (pictorial boards) & DJ (in mylar jacket), 1st edition, 1st printing. PROBLEM: being a tall book, there is shelf wear to the top DJ edge in the form of 2 very short "repaired" tears. Interior clean & tight. The color illustrations by Gore are no less than ethereal - transporting one to the past ages of Israel and her trees. Content: Reviewer: "This short history of trees in the Holy Land melds fact with poetic language and magnificent art. Unfortunately cataloged by the Library of Congress as fiction, this book presents an accurate description of the natural history of the small slice of land called Israel over a 7,000 year period. The language is simple enough for a child to understand, yet contains little-known history, deep truths, and complex concepts. The sensitive illustrations have a magical quality, managing to show the historical realities of each period within the context of trees. The illustrator's use of color is outstanding, with color fading as the land is denuded, then rebuilding to lush blues and greens as new forests darken the hillsides. This book would make a wonderful gift for any child, and for any adult interested in either the environment or the Holy Land." [1 copy available]

THE BOOK OF CREATION
by Georges Lemoine. Lovely soft color illustrations by Pierre-Marie Beaude. Condition: Gently prread, IF at all, 1992 Picture Book Studio hardcover (pictorial boards), first thus, first printing. The book has been perused on the shelf and it appears the first 8 pages may have been read. DJ shows light edge wear with a small "repaired" tear to the bottom back flap corner. Content: In the desert of the Holy Land, 2500 years ago, a father begins to tell his preadolescent son "what happened on the first morning of the world." His account focuses on the content and the context of creation, and on its timeless significance, rather than echoing the words of the Bible. Certain themes--like human stewardship of the earth--speak especially to us, but seem also to belong to a subsistence culture of desert nomads. Lemoine's watercolors--pure, linear, minimal, but with touches of expressionistic color--also combine the "primitive" and the contemporary. The text depends on Genesis A, omitting the B version's Eden, serpent, sin, and expulsion. Its sole borrowing from B is the creation of woman from man's rib instead of her co-creation, from clay, with man, and some readers may not feel that B's version "means that woman is the equal of man." The author has gracefully incorporated some ideas from midrashic commentaries, and the expanded story is fresh and at times poetic. It is also rather long, with a sophisticated vocabulary and concepts. Ages 10+. Excellent for Sunday School teachers. [1 copy available]

THE CHRISTMAS SKY
by Franklyn M. Branley. Beautiful warm color illustrations by Stephen Fieser. Condition: UNREAD, but not perfect, 1990 Thomas Crowell hardcover & DJ (in mylar jackaet), revised & newly illustrated, first printing. DJ has been price-clipped. Blank bookplate loose end page. Content: This is a remarkable book for kids! An astronomical exploration of the Star of Bethlehem against a background of the Christmas story. A newly illustrated version of a 1966 title that is a fascinating example of the scientific mind at work. Branley asks what might have caused the star the Wise Men followed to appear in the heavens. He discusses theories and rules out by evidence shooting stars, (too short a duration) comets, and novas (none visible around the time of Jesus' birth). Branley then deduces the year and season of Jesus' birth through a series of old tax records, facts of Herod's rule and death, and the times when desert people grazed sheep. Fieser's use of rich colors and rounded shapes give the illustrations a substantial firmness and authority that suit the narrative perfectly. This book is not only seasonally remarkable, but pictures and text glow in this carefully reasoned and fully probable explanation of a phenomenon once observed. AGes 9 - 12. [1 copy available]

CONFUCIUS: The Golden Rule
by Russell Freedman (Newbery Medal Winner). Color illustrations by Frederic Clement. Condition: UNREAD 2002 Arthur A. Levine Books (Scholastic) hardcover & DJ (in mylar jacket), second printing. PROBLEM: Top book & DJ spine are damaged - most likely in shipping - DJ has been "repaired" but the book cannot be repaired. The interior is perfect with beautiful illustrations. Content: This is an intelligent, comprehensive biography of the 5th-century B.C. philosopher Confucius, whose teachings have influenced the development of modern government and education in both China and the West. Freedman draws on stories, legends and collected dialogues from The Analects of Confucius, written by his students, to reveal a man of deep perceptions as well as great humor. Clement's moody, ethereal illustrations complement the thoughtful text yet play up the mystery of Confucius's life. Like worn pages ripped from an ancient tome, the rubbed, faded images strewn with photorealistic fruits, petals and berries plunge readers into otherworldly scenes. For today's students, this portrait is a comprehensible introduction to Eastern thought. Just as Confucius "prodded [his students] to think in new ways," it will open new doors for young readers. Ages 8-12. Questions welcome.

CORNELIUS AND THE DOG STAR
by Diana Spyropulos. Beautiful and warm color illustrations by Ray Williams. Condition: UNREAD 1995 Illumination Arts hardcover (pictorial boards) & DJ (in mylar jacket), first printing. Top DJ edge shows light edge wear. Content: Cornelius Basset-Hound has never much enjoyed his life. He felt that working, and bringing home bones was more important than spending time with his lovely wife, and great-grandpuppies. Then one day, while relaxing in his easy chair one evening, Cornelius takes his very last breath, and finds himself in front of the gates of Dog Heaven. There he meets Saint Bernard, who doesn't admit him right away. Cornelius must first find a way to be happy, and kinder to others before he can find a place where he will stay for eternity, and the Dog Star helps him to do just that. It's hard to find a good book for young children about death and heaven, but this book presents it in a wonderful, easy way, in which even the youngest readers will understand the meaning of the story. Filled with delightful illustrations by Ray Williams, and wonderful prose by Diana Spyropulos, this is a book that surely cannot be missed. Ages 8-12. Questions welcome.

A FIRST BIBLE STORY BOOK (DK)
Stories retold by Mary Hoffman. Wonderful color illustrations by Julie Downing. Condition: NEW 1998 DK hardcover (pictorial boards) & DJ (in mylar jacket), 10th printing (c. 2000). Content: An introduction to the Bible for very young children with 13 stories from the Old and the New Testaments bringing Bible characters to life. The brief "Introduction to the Bible" as well as "Who's Who" at the back of the book offer some helpful orientation to these 13 Old and New Testament classics--from Genesis and Noah to the Three Wise Men and the Last Supper. Each story is amply illustrated with watercolors by Julie Downing, and the artwork breaks up the text in unpredictable ways--in other words, you'll find the usual DK Publishing eye for good design. Mary Hoffman's tone is undogmatic (the Bible is simply "some of the best stories ever told") and she is particularly good at finding ways to handle stories, such as Abraham and Isaac, or the crucifixion, that might seem rough-going for children. (Ages 4 to 7) Questions welcome. [2 copies available]

THE FRIENDLY SNOWFLAKE: A Fable of Faith, Love and Family
by M. Scott Peck, M.D. Wonderfully sweet color illustrtions by Christopher Scott Peck. Condition: Gently pre-read, IF at all, 1992 Turner Publishing hardcover (pictorial boards) and DJ (in mylar jacket), first edition, first pritning. Content: Reviewer: "This book is an adorable story about a young girls "friendship" with a snowflake & what she ultimately learned about life because of it. The types of spiritual issues brought up in this book definitely follow Mr. Peck's previous adult books, therefore, it may not be right for everyone. Some of the types of "issues"/"lessons" that are discussed include: reincarnation, the underlying connection of us to each other & ultimately to all things, and choosing to find your own answers to lifes' mysteries. Overall, I found this to be a cute way to discuss such ideas with children. As such, I would highly recommend it for those who would like to begin teaching their children about such things as connection, reincarnation, and searching for their own answers. Questions welcome.

GRANDAD'S PRAYERS OF THE EARTH (Christopher Award)
by Douglas Wood. Lovely, soft color illustrations by P.J. Lynch. Condition: UNREAD c. 2001 Candlewick hardcover (decorated boards) & DJ (in mylar jacket), 2nd printing. DJ shows light edge wear. Interior perfect. 1 small tag removal marks bottom front DJ panel. Content: In spectacular double-page outdoor scenes shown from a variety of perspectives, a young boy and his grandfather wander along woodsy lanes, gaze up at towering pines, teeter across a rushing stream, and dream by a lake lit with sunset glow. These beautiful, meditative, realistic watercolors of nature in all seasons are interspersed with close-ups of the two as they talk about prayer. Grandad explains that all earthly beings pray: trees in reaching for heaven, rocks by being still and silent, streams while splashing and flowing, flowers by releasing their fragrance, birds in song, and so on. Human beings pray in many ways, he says, and all of the prayers are valid as long as they are true and heartfelt. When Grandad dies, the boy's prayers, no matter how fervent, can not bring him back. Consequently, he rejects the practice for some time, but eventually turns again to the natural world and begins to hear the prayers of trees, breezes, birds, and waters, just as his grandfather had said he would. The boy, now a teenager, then gives thanks for his grandfather's life, feeling that he is close and the world seems right again. Without mentioning any specific God or belief, the thoughtful text celebrates all creation and is perfectly complemented by the moving, expressive illustrations. Grades 1 - 3. [1 copy available]

JESUS (Based on the King James Version of the Holy Bible)
text & beautiful color illustrations by Demi. Condition: NEW 2005 Margaret McElderry Books over-sized hardcover (pictorial boards - no DJ issued), first printing. Remainder mark. Content: [One of the most beautifully illustrated children's books I have seen.] Demi has used her considerable artistic talents in books about many great religious figures. Now, she turns her attention to Jesus, using as her text pieces from the four gospels, and lacing them into a touching narrative of life, death, and resurrection. Anyone familiar with children's books will immediately recognize Demi's style. All of the hallmarks of her art are here: striking design, diminutive figures, jewel-tone colors, intricate borders, and brilliant streaks of gold signifying holiness. Jesus is something of a disappointment--a blond, wispy Lord, whose strength comes from the golden rays that surround him and are emitted from him. But the scenes, each a small play of its own, are thoughtful and often moving. The text does not use the exact language of the King James Version of the New Testament, but the simplified presentation adds to the child appeal. Using the most vivid sections from the different gospels, Demi creates a brisk yet profound rendition of the greatest story ever told. Grades 4+. [1 copy available]

KINGS AND QUEENS OF THE BIBLE
by Mary Hoffman. Bright color illustrations by Christina Balit. Condition: NEW 2008 Henry Holt hardcover (pictorial boards) & DJ (in mylar jacket), first printing. Content: Seven Old Testament tales featuring kings and queens are retold here, representing the cruel (such as Pharaoh and Jezebel) and the kind (such as Solomon and Esther). While the plotlines have been simplified and the telling is clear, some familiarity with the original stories will aid understanding. Readers will be reminded that the Bible can be filled with romance, violence, and death. The offerings do not combine into a single coherent narrative, but do evoke common themes of wealth, wisdom, prophecy, and power. An introduction provides a contextual overview, and endnotes refer to the biblical sources for each selection. The author describes the tales as coming from the "Old Testament," rather than the "Hebrew Bible," revealing a Christian point of view. The flowing, jewel-toned, stylized illustrations appear to support a Eurocentric perspective: each beautiful picture depicts the Middle Eastern and African characters with pale skin and blue-green eyes. This quibble aside, the illustrations do succeed in creating a fairy-tale atmosphere that supports the text's focus on royalty. This is an attractive volume. However, it should be noted that while "adult" material has been expunged from the stories, the violence remains. If, for example, Queen Jezebel being eaten by dogs will upset your young readers, use with caution. [1 copy available]

THE LADY IN THE BLUE CLOAK: Legends from the Texas Missions
by Eric A. Kimmel. Beautiful soft color illustrations by Susan Guevara. Condition: NEW 2006 Holiday hardacover & DJ (in mylar jacket), first printing. Content: Each of these six selections opens with a full-page illustration that captures the heart of its story. The gorgeous oil paintings are filled with light and religious imagery befitting the legends. In this picture book, Kimmel collects stories from the Texas missions that were built during Spain's colonial rule. In the title tale, a Spanish nun appears in realistic visions to a group of Tejas Indians; in "Rosa's Window," a Spanish artisan leaves his sweetheart behind to travel to Texas, where he will help build mission churches; and in "The Christmas Vine," a priest helps a young boy choose an offering for Jesus. The short stories flow easily, but they present a mostly uncritical picture of the Christian mission experience (bringing "these new Christians closer to God"), and the narrow viewpoint may jar readers seeking a more balanced portrayal of colonists and indigenous people. However, there are very few collections of these stories available for the age group, and the mysticism, faith, and magic--captured in reverential oil paintings bordered with angels, saints, and other religious imagery--will resonate with some children, particularly Catholics and Texans, for whom the symbolism and history may be more familiar. An introduction offers more background, and an afterword cites sources. Wonderful! [3 copies available.]

THE LIFE OF OUR LORD
by Charles Dickens. Color illustrations by Sally Holmes. Condition: Very good, gently pre-read 1987 Silver Burdett hardcover & DJ (in mylar jacket). Tiny edgewear to the DJ bottom edge. Content: Until 1934, when the last of Dickens' children died, this remained a private document, unpublished at the author's wish. It was written for his own children as a simple introduction to Jesus Christ. Always a rebel against religious pomposity and high-flown theology, Dickens intended his family to learn about the human Christ who served the poor, loved children, and lived a beautiful and blameless life. He seldom alludes to Christ's divinity. Since this is a father's personal statement and not a faithful version of Gospels and Acts, perhaps he can be forgiven the condescensions and discrepancies appearing in the manuscript. The format is handsome. Each page of text is framed with a decorative border. The full-page illustrations, done in warm soft colors, are crisp and solid. There are no references to specific New Testament sources. Foreward, afterward, facsimiles of pages from the manuscript, and several prayers of the Dickens family are also included.

THE LITTLE WING GIVER
text by Jacques Taravant. Translated from the French by Nina Ignatowicz. Lovely, soft pastel color illustrations by Peter Sis. Condition: NEW 1997 Barron's Juvenile kits, no printing given. Still shrink-wrapped. Content: Caldecott Honor artist Sis (Tibet Through the Red Box) provides fittingly wispy, ethereal art for this allegorical tale about the first angel. The late Taravant, a French diplomat, penned the lyrical story for his son (it first appeared posthumously in Le Monde). Long ago, when no creatures had wings, there lived a Little Wing Giver whose origins were unknown: "Perhaps he was born inside a flower one morning. Or perhaps he slid down to earth on a moonbeam one summer night. Or perhaps God had realized He'd forgotten to give out wings and sent the little boy to complete His creation." In full-page and vignette illustrations, Sis follows the cheerful youngster as he traverses the land, handing out wings to birds, bugs and butterflies, until "all the creatures you can think of had the wings they now have." One dramatic scene depicts the boy riding on a stork high above the ocean; another shows the climax, in which the lad lies down to rest and the jealous wind, whirling around the frame of the picture, hurls his wings in its wake. The hero performs one last act of kindness before falling into a deep slumber then his winged pals find a way to repay him. A penultimate view of the hero's ascension and the following scene featuring a parade of flying birds, rendered in soft pastel shades, close the volume on an uplifting note. This book can be a gentle touching-off point for parents and kids to discuss spirituality, selflessness, and even death. (Ages 4 to 8) Questions welcome. [1 copy available]
