Reviews
On Aug 22 2021, a reader said:
I own this book and would like to win for my grandchildren and great grandchildren to read. It is a beautiful rendition of the Circle of Life, the Creation Story regardless of your specific religion and an explanation of the what each phase of life from birth to death means. A more beautiful story you could not leave for your children and their children to read or have read to them. This is a book that a hospice patient could enjoy having someone read to him or her.
This is a lovely story for everyone on so many levels. I can see this being read to a child with cancer or other debilitating illness.
