What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Chau’s beautiful, flowing illustrations bring to life the story of the Bible told in Ling’s short rhymes… . Readers receive an abridged version of the stories of the Bible that, with the art, still adequately convey the enormity and reach of the visions set forth in that literature… . This unique and accessible volume deserves a place in religious sections or collections with a demonstrated demand for Biblical stories.”—School Library Journal
“Gorgeous illustrations from Alina Chau and beautiful writing from Nancy Tupper Ling celebrate the beauty of a broken world through the stories of the Bible … Beautiful in every way.”—Imagination Soup, 25 Outstanding New Picture Books
“A beautifully illustrated lyrical roadmap of sorts—an appealing introduction to some of the best stories told within the context of the Bible’s larger message… . Like lovingly strung prayer beads, these poetic gems sing true. There is a hopeful message here, along with incentive to explore one’s faith.”—Jama’s Alphabet Soup
“This is a great way to teach children the big story of redemption!”—Leah Broach, national director of Alliance Kids, The Christian Missionary Alliance
“As a pediatrician and father of eight, I have never seen the need for God more than in the lives of growing children. One Perfect Plan helps fill this need by providing memorable Bible verses and kid-friendly artwork.”—William Sears, MD, co-author of The Portable Pediatrician
