Does God Know How TO Tie Shoes

This book was in excellent condition just as described and came to us in a timely manner and in good condition.

Fresh, creative, unique approach

A masterfully written book showing ways to see God in our world. Exquisite artwork. My kids enjoyed the story, laughing at the unique way it talks about God, and immediately asked for a re-reading. We have many Christian children's books in our family library -- this is one of the most refreshing and visually stunning.

Does God Know How to Tie Shoes

This was a awesome book, the world needs more books like this. It is so nice to know that authors are taking the time time to write books like this for children. This pictures and words in this book are beautiful. I love this book!

Beautiful illustrations, thoughtful answers to hard question

This book is beautifully illustrated and gives thoughtful answers to questions kids ask. I especially like the references in the back. I would reccomend it for the illustrations alone and would love to see some of them available for framing. Kids may not be so enamored but the parents and grandparents who saw it bought it! It opens a door to deeper discussion with a younger child. Buy it you will love it! I am a teacher and a grandma.

Wonderful story to help explain God.

This is a beautiful book that shows children all the ways that God helps us and what he wants us to do to help others. My 2 year olds love the pictures and the story.
