The Genesis of it All

by Luci Shaw, Illustrated by Sr. Huai-Kuang Miao and Sr. Mary Lane

Both the text and the illustrations of this joyful new picture book
are breathtaking and poetic, as they open our eyes to the beauty and
wonder of God's creative action in creating the world. We've heard
the story so many times that we need to be newly awakened to the
amazing events of the Bible. This book does just that, for children
as well as adults, by retelling the story of Creation. And it's no
dumbed-down children's version. Just listen to this selection:

"What God did was see something in his imagination, and speak it, and
it became real. God flung both arms wide and embraced deep space,
then bend and squeezed it, twisting it and pulling it like dough, then
flinging it wide in great spirals of energy. It surged out hugely,
flashing, exploding into the dark with a thunderous blast - universes,
galaxies, nebulae. It was so hot God had to blow on it to cool it as
it spun away."

This book is one that brings
so much freshness to the understanding of God's awesome power and joy
that I highly recommend it to you.
