As you know, I'm Not Just A Runner, and one of the many things that I am is a stay-at-home Mom to Lil Man. He's my workout buddy, even through physical therapy.
And one of the things that we enjoy doing together, other than exercising, dancing, throwing a ball, playing chase, trains and cars is read.
When he was just a baby, Hubby and I read to him daily. He gets a book or three at nap/quiet time, and the same again at bedtime. And of course we read in between if the mood strikes.
So when I heard about A Love Letter From God by P.K. Hallinan, I thought it would be something that Lil Man and I would enjoy reading. Wow, was I pleasantly surprised when I opened this book.
To me, children's books should be bright (my personal opinion of course). I think it needs to be visually appealing (at least for Lil Man) to keep his attention. And then, the book needs to make sense. I don't know how many books I will pick up to read and they don't have any story-line at all. I mean, I will finish reading and as an adult think 'huh, that didn't make any sense'.
But from the first glance, A Love Letter from God, was definitely visually stunning. The colors were vibrant and bold. And, as an added bonus there were cutouts. Lil Man loved and I mean absolutely loved the cutouts. He named each shape on each page, and it definitely helped to hold his attention.
And, I loved the story-line. Yes, it had one! In fact, it had a great one for our family. I realize this book has a targeted audience since the title is A Love Letter From God, but it was great for our family. And it quickly became one of my favorite books to read to Lil Man.
