Who stole the flowers
in God's Secret Garden? Find out in this delightful tale, which uses
animals, nature, and a visit from an angel to teach the importance of
prayer and the value of trusting God.
My Take:
What a lovely little book with a wonderful message on not letting others steal your joy. This book is written especially for younger children and offers a message of love and hope in a way that is simple for them to understand. With lovely illustrations and characters,
children will see the value of prayer in action.
Short and sweet, it's just long enough to hold young children's attention without giving them time to get restless.
My grandbebes loved it at Gigi Storytime, and I think your children and
grandchildren will, too. It would make a lovely and meaningful addition
to the Christmas gift list!
BOOK RATING: 4 out of 5 stars
