Book Review – God Loves Me More Than That by Dandi Daley Mackall

 

I am review a book for blogging for books.

The first thing I always notice in childrens books are the illustrations.  This book was illustrated by David Hohn and the pictures are very "real Like" verses being cartoonish.  I really think this helps the overall message in the book.  Also, the colors used are very calming. 

The book discusses the different ways that God loves me.  I love the fact that the verses rhyme and each verse ends with "God Loves Me More Then That". 

The final thing I look at when reading childrens books are how the children respond to the book.  I read this book to 4 children ages 9 months to 4 years.  The older child seemed to grasp the message in the book a little more, however the book kept the interest of the two 2 year olds very well with it's short phrases and repetition. The 9 month old really enjoyed the pictures.
