Who Counts? by Amy-Jill Levine and Sandy Eisenberg Sasso


















Here is the book summary:

One sheep makes a difference. Without her something is missing. Now my flock is complete.

Oh, no! The man is missing his sheep! The woman is missing her coin! The father is missing his son! Can you help them find what they are looking for?

Who Counts? is a creative retelling of three popular parables: the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the prodigal son. As young readers count to help the characters find what’s missing, Who Counts? teaches that every one of us counts in God’s eyes and that everyone should feel counted.

The stories are beautifully illustrated with modern-day characters and a diversity of ethnicities so that all children will be able to see themselves in the stories.

And now, my review:
What a great full color book for children of 3 great parables in the Word of God.  This book covers the lost sheep, the lost coin and the lost son (prodigal son).  Somethings missing in each of these stories and sought out until found!  My girls really enjoyed this one.  The pictures and the words flow great and it’s beautifully put together.  The illustrator did a great job and we enjoyed her work on this.  We really enjoyed the facial expressions throughout and the amazing hair in the lost coin story. 

I received a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
