God’s Wonderful World
Kristen McCurry and Jennifer Hilton, illus. by Michael Garton. Sparkhouse Family, $6.99 (22p) ISBN 978-1-5064-1047-0
Part of the Frolic First Faith series, this board book shows cartoon animals appreciating and interacting with the world through their senses. “Touch the cool water,” write the authors as a dove and goat splash in a small lake (the desert environment, studded with stone buildings and palm trees, suggests a Middle Eastern setting). A closing prayer (“Dear God, Thank you for the tongues that taste, fingers that touch...”) and resources for parents round out a cozy, faith-centric meditation on the world’s wonders. Available simultaneously: God Made Us All, Pray to God!, and God Finds Us. Up to age 3. (May)
