***Special thanks to Pam Mettler of Zondervan for sending me a review copy.***ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Andrew is the creator, writer, and illustrator of the Lost Sheep series. Way back in 1989 as a young Bible college student, Andrew was asked to give the dreaded “children’s talk” at a large church. Andrew possessed one talent: he could draw sheep. He bought some overheard projector sheets and drew up the story of Cecil and the Lost Sheep. The congregation loved it, so Andrew continued to draw stories to use with kids and adults. Other student, pastors, and teachers started borrowing the stories.Product Details:

I LOVE this book for smaller children. It's the perfect example of God's love for us. And how by turning to him we will grow and prosper in His will.
I sat down and read it to Gracie and Matthew and when I was finished I asked Gracie what it was about. She knew right away! I was such a proud mommy at that moment. I went ahead and reinforced the idea behind it, but I know this is going to be something she will remember. I'll continue to read this one to them and as Matthew gets older he'll learn from it also.
The artwork is bright and eye catching. The words are simple but straight forward. Excellent book!
