My Review:

This read takes on Creation from a different aspect. It takes nature and opens up a different world for our readers. It expands on the different acts of nature. And gives tips and tricks to teach our children how to help preserve what we all have around us. The gifts God has given us to live a good life with fresh air and nature all around us. To become a better steward of what we have been given is the primary purpose of this book.

This book would definitely be a good teaching book when trying to teach about creation. A really great read explaining in more detail the world around us.

**Disclosure**This book was sent to me free of charge for my honest review from the publisher.

As a former home school parent & school librarian I found this book helpful. I like the layout, and important/difficult words are highlighted. There are eleven chapters covering water, endangered species, mountains and minerals, air and sky, woodlands, soil, pollinators, wetlands, coral reefs, the ocean, and the poles & global climate. The book also contains a glossary and links to online resources which, allow you to dig deeper. There are student activities and questions for thoughtful response. This book makes a great starting point for discussions, and I like the idea of different ecosystems offered in one book. Thoughtful text glorifies God as creator and challenges the reader to examine ways of being a good steward of the earth. The illustrations and layout are attractive for children, and even though I prefer a book that’s a little larger in size, I believe this is a good fit for small hands. It’s hard to find good science books that encompass so many topics in one edition, and a lot of thought has gone into this one. For my money, I’d say that this book packs a punch.

[Cover Lover Book Review]

All of Creation is packed full of fun facts and illustrations that illuminate the intricacies, beauty, and wonder of the world God created for us.

As a child, I would’ve treasured this book! I love the layout, the design, and highlights that are easy on the eye and give reason to reflect on God and the world around me.

Just about anything you can think of is covered in this hardback book. From the depths of the oceans to the highest mountain tops and everything in between. The resources this book provides are essential to growth and sustainability, as well as accessing quiet time in meditation with our wondrous Creator. Highly recommended!

This book resonates with me for many reasons. While there may be small things here or there that I’m not sure about, the majority of the book is exactly what I’ve been looking for. As a Christian, I believe that we need to steward the home that God gave us! However, I am often caught in between the more liberal environmentalists, and more conservative Christian’s. This book gives Christian’s science and biblical reasons for protecting the environment for each other and for the animals and habitats that God created. I proudly try to be conscious of the environment while also praising God and recognizing Him as the creator and I believe this book aims to achieve that as well!

This is a great book for kids (and adults) who want to be more aware about what is happening to Planet Earth. It covers many topics relating to how our earth is affected by the things that humans are doing. The illustrations are fantastic and the information gives a bit more than the basic details of what’s happening. Each section has a Biblical perspective and practical actions. There are lots of different types of actions so if you like research or going into your community, there’s something for each one of us to choose to help keep our earth beautiful. When we care for the earth, we are also caring for the people, animals, and plants that live here.

I wish I had this book when I was homeschooling my son. Science and religion can go together and the author successfully dovetails the two. The facts are clearly explained and the biblical references are perfect.
The earth is a beautiful masterpiece, and this book helps children learn how to be responsible caretakers.
I am going to pass this book on to a friend who teaches science at a private school.

This book is very educational and interesting, although how it got shelved as Teen Fiction in my local library I will never understand.🤷‍♀️

This was fine for what it was and the age range it is geared towards.

I received a free copy from libro.fm as part of the educator audiobook listening copies. All opinions are my own. #librofm #harperaudio
