What a beautiful work! It unwraps the stories of Biblical women with honesty and empathy and truth, revealing the God of these women and His goodness throughout it all。 The illustrations are gorgeous。 The writing is careful, using appropriately speculative language when stating more than the Scriptures tell of the story。 The story section brings the Word of God to life for young readers。 The world section gives historical and cultural context to the narrative。 The God section reminds us of God's What a beautiful work!
