Book Review: God Gave Us You!



When a charming polar bear cub climbs into bed one night, she asks her Mama a very important question--one that little "human cubs" often wonder about, too: "Where did I come from?"

As Mama bear tucks her youngest cub under the quilts, she gently, tenderly, and reassuringly communicates the message loving parents everywhere (bears and non-bears alike) want their little ones to hear: "We wanted you very, very much, and we are so very glad because--"God gave us you." 

Perfect for bedtime, naptime, storytime or anytime, God Gave Us You provides a valuable opportunity to build children's self-esteem every day and assure each one that he or she truly is a welcomed, precious, and treasured gift from the Lord.

"I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review".

My review…

Love Love LOVE this book and so do our three children! We were introduced to this lovable bear family when I was pregnant with our twins, my dear friend gave "God gave us Two" to me for my birthday! Since then we have collected ever single on of Lisa Tawn Bergren books for our children! Our kids love the pictures, the bears, everything, my husband and I love the beautiful message that each book has weaved into it! I also love that it is a board book. It will stand up much better and I won't be scared to let little children play with it. As far as my thoughts are concerned…The illustrations are wonderful and the story is even better!! 

100% recommended to EVERYONE…the perfect gift for any child, from a believing family or not!
