I'm not A Scaredy-CatBook Review
I think everyone is afraid of something, especially in our former years of childhood. I suppose we learn how to deal with our innermost personal anxieties and in turn wish to teach our children and grandchildren how to face their fears. Inside the pages of this delightful picture book are fun-loving rhymes, along with excellent colorful illustrations. Most children love cats, so this cute young one, who's afraid of the littlest things, learns to immediately talk to God when he reacts to unexpected circumstances and immediately feels better. A quote from the book regarding the problem:
A leaf from a tree
Landed right on my knee.
I jumped with a bump, fell down with a thump - And that's what happened to me.
My favorite line from the book explaining the solution:
Max Lucado does it again! I love this one! 5/5 stars. Highly recommend.
Then I pray:
"God, you are good.
God, you are near.
God, you are here!
And, God, you love me."
Great for gift giving and an awesome addition for home and Sunday School libraries.
