GOD GAVE US LOVE

I am always looking for good Christian books to read with my twin boys. They are 1st graders and are becoming little readers themselves. So I was so glad to be able to read this new board book with them. The main character, Little Cub, and his grandfather have a great conversation about God's love while out fishing in the wild. My boys love to be outside, so the setting was great for them. The book talks about how hard it is to love sometimes especially when people upset us or are different than us. It gives great examples of sibling rivalry (something we deal with on a daily hourly basis) and moodiness too. The part my twins loved the best was when Little Cub talked about her twin siblings! They got so excited to be reading a book with twins in it.

As a mom, I appreciate books like this. It seems like I am constantly nagging at my kids to get along, to be kind, to stop fighting, and to love, love, love! This book drives home the message that God's love is the greatest example we have and that I should practice what I preach to my kiddos!

*I am a blogger who loves to read and review books. I was given a copy of this book by WaterBrook Press in exchange for my review.*
