      Favorite book

      Had this book for when my girls were little. Pastor of our church used it in children's time during a church service. Recently bought book for a Pastor friend of ours. Kept our book for future grandchildren now that our kids are grown, married & we are now empty nesters. Highly recommend book for boys or girls, young or old & adults too! One of my favorite books, great message.
