Here is a message that every parent will want to share with his or her child: “You’re brilliantly created and there’s no one else like you!” In a manner that even the youngest child will understand, Jill Roman Lord shares the message that God created each of us in just the right way. Bright and engaging illustrations from Amy Wummer pair perfectly with the text. Great for children ages 2-5.
From the back of the book:
You're brilliantly created, and there's no one else like you! With simple, rhyming text and whimsical illustrations, this book is a welcome reminder for the little ones that God created each of us in just the right way.

My Review:
The illustrations in this book are so adorable. They make any child or person reading the book feel special and happy. I recommend this book for ages 1 and up. As everyone needs to hear the messages in this book every so often. We all need a reminder that God made each one of us unique and special. The book tells us that God "planned the special uses of the fingers on your hand." God gave each one of us a unique gift to share with others. The book tells children and adults alike that we are "God's amazing work of art, adored, one of a kind." We are His amazing work! He loves each and every one of us for who we are, and for who we will become. There's even a bible verse in the back of the book, Jeremiah 29:11, "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord," plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
We all need a reminder of how much God loves us once in a while. We all need Hope. For without Hope of change and things to come and that hopefully our world will change it's ways, we would not be happy people.
