I am so excited to share this heartwarming children's book with you!
Audrey Bunny by Angie Smith is such a sweet book about how God sees us.
There are no mistakes.
As some of you know, my youngest daughter has a rare genetic condition and special needs, so you can be sure that I was boo-hooing by the end of this adorable story. But even if you have 'typical children' (which I suppose is the PC term, although is any child typical?) I bet you'll reach for the tissue box, too. The message about God's love applies to everyone.
From the publisher:
About Audrey Bunny
From best-selling women’s author Angie Smith (I Will Carry You, Mended) comes this sweet children’s book about a stuffed animal named Audrey Bunny who fears her imperfections make her unworthy of a little girl’s love. She'll learn the truth soon enough, and young readers will learn that everyone is special and wonderfully made by God.
[Also included]: The Parent Connection (last page of the book) shares discussion questions and activities reinforcing God's love for us.
Angie Smith is the wife of Todd Smith (lead singer of Dove Award winning group Selah), best-selling author of Mended, I Will Carry You, and What Women Fear, and one of the most popular speakers and blog writers in the country. She holds a Master’s degree in Developmental Psychology from Vanderbilt University and lives with her husband and daughters in Nashville, TN.

Hi Melody,
ReplyDeleteFor some reason your rafflecopter (sp?) doesn't work for me, but I have read Angie's blog, several years ago in fact it was before she moved to the new blog look. She is a great writer, a beautiful women and a great testimony of what it means to love Jesus during all circumstances. Didn't know she was writing children's books now. Will need to purchase this one.
Blessings.
By the way if your oldest likes to draw she may like some of the history pages we are using, come over (to our blog) and take a look.
The illustration on the cover is beautiful. Looks like a really sweet book. :)
