From the back cover:
Have you ever wanted to quit when things got hard?
Have you wondered, "what's the point?" when you were going through difficult experiences? The characters in this book have felt all of those things!
Come along and meet Pearl, Jack, Diamond and Fergie, some of the world's most rare and wonderful creations who became what they are by enduring hard things.
My review:
What Are YOU Made Of? is a delightful story for children from 5 to 10 years of age, but it’s message of encouragement will appeal to all age groups. This book shows how troubles can produce beautiful results and encourages readers to trust the God Who created them and is always with them.
I was surprised and intrigued by the science discoveries and experiments designed for a fun, hands-on learning encounter. The author even invites readers to interact with her personally, a surprising and sweet touch.
I love this book and highly recommend it. What Are YOU Made Of? would make a great gift or resource for schools. Five stars!
