Customer Reviews

Gabriel, God, and the Fuzzy Blanket from Kokomo

I just finished reading this lovely book to my son. I found it very easy to read with lots of things to peak a childs interest...the most fun was Gabriel! The illustrations were very well done and give a lot to look at. Annette Griessman has a way of describing things so that you don't need to see the illustrations to see what is going on. A great book to make a child use his/her imagination!

Teach Your Children Well

How in the world do you explain to a two, three, or even four year-old that God is always with us, ready to provide comfort and security during the "worst" of times? Annette Griessman has provided a wonderful parable that illustrates how God not only answers prayer, but sends special comfort too! Ms. Griessman is adept at portraying a child's fears and needs in such a way that it not only moves the youngsters hearing the tale, but reaches into the heart of the adult reader as well. She gently illustrates the omnipresence of God in a warm, practical, human way. David Erickson's illustrations compliment the warmth and richness of the storyline. His pictures are realistic enough to extract a grin from the reader, yet are childlike enough to reach the intended audience and augment the text. This picture book is a must have for any grandparent's library.
