count on this one to charm!

I love all the books in this series! I have been teaching Sunday school for a long time, and it's hard to find books that are respectful of the child and of God, books that aren't 'cutesy' or trite. This series is gentle and despite being in black and white, very engaging. I enjoy reading it to our 2-4 year olds. We have a copy in the church nursery as well as one in my atrium classroom so that when they move up to our 3-6 class, there is something familiar to greet them. : )

This book is a blessing!

The photography is original and superb. Heidi Bratton has a unique gift. Highly recommended for parents of toddlers.
