This book is positively sweet. The author's rhymes and rhythms make it easy to read this book aloud in a lovely song-like flow. The message is clear and comes across with such gentle joy.

The illustrations are adorable, and each page is packed with details you can point out and discuss with your little one time and time again. This book would make a wonderful baby shower gift or present for a toddler.

Good News! God Loves You! by Glenys Nellist - Our Daily Bread for Kids Presents Board book
What darling illustrations! This is the cutest children book I’ve seen in a while. Vivid pics of barnyard animals teach the truth about God's great love. My favorite is the momma cat covering up her kittens in a haystack.

Children learn about God’s love through the rhymes like this:
God's love is wrapped around you.
You're held in God's great care.
And even though it can't be seen,
God's love is everywhere.

Sturdy board book will last for years and through several children. What a great way to show God’s love to young children. This would be a great gift for any child!

I would like to thank NetGalley and Our Daily Bread Publishing for a free eARC of this book.

This is my second Good News! book and definitely another I would recommend. The illustrations are beautiful. The bright colors and barn animals kept my child’s attention. The story itself repeated over and over how much God loves us, using nature language (higher than the trees, etc) much like the Bible does and had cute rhymes. Like all books in this series, the last page of the book had the scripture that it was based on which I really appreciate. I will take all the Biblical truth I can to speak into my son’s life.
I will say, “Good News! It’s Creation” is still by far my favorite of these series, so if I had to recommend just 1, it would be that one. But this one was still beautiful and worth having in your kiddo’s library.
*Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an Advance Readers Copy in exchange for my honest review.

This book has attractive illustrations as well as a nice storyline and should be delightful to share with the intended audience. The only thing I would have liked to see was a shift from the animal illustrations to some human illustrations. This would send the message that just as the animals love their offspring, so do humans. While the reader could say that to the child, having that illustration already there would help make the connection. Apart from that, it would make a nice purchase for personal use or as a gift.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book provided by the publisher and Net Galley but the thoughts expressed are my own.

This book is full of beautiful illustrations and a wonderful story of how deep God's love is. This book is sure to please any child. My great granddaughters, ages 2 and 5, both loved it.

Just as with the other book I just reviewed, I'm mostly here for the illustrations. The positivity in the affirmations is good to enforce.

Nothing at all can ever separate us from God's love. Romans 8:39

Such an endearing board book on the love of God. That is the good news and we can see it in the goodness of God. Your children will love the farm animals with the vivid illustrations and the simple message of God's love. It soothing to the soul to both parents and child.

A special thank you to Our Daily Bread Publishing and Netgalley for the ARC and the opportunity to post an honest review.

This is SO sweet! I love it. I love the rhythm of the prose, I love the farmyard pictures. This is so lovely and I would have enjoyed reading this to my kids when they were little. This book encouraged me to explore what else the author has.

I thought this book was very sweet and with a great meaning. The illustrations were beautiful as well. I like how the book finished with a verse from Romans that ties everything together. I love to include children’s books in gifts for baby showers and this would definitely be a great one to choose.
