I found it to be good. It was well-structured, with a clear narrative that would be engaging for young readers. The book covered themes that are relevant and educational for children, presented in a way that is easy to understand and relate to.

The language used was suitable for children, making it a good choice for young readers to enjoy and learn from.

Overall, I liked this book and believe it is a good addition to a child's reading list.

Sweetly illustrated. Here is a rhyming picture book for toddlers to Pre-K about God's love in making us and enabling us to see and play.. "Who made my fingers wiggle so?" "Who gave me ten cute toes," and so forth. On the page that asks "Who gave me legs to stand and walk, climb trees and run around?," the illustration includes a boy in a wheelchair (among other children walking, riding bicycles, and a scooter). While this IS a beautiful book and welcome addition to any child's library, parents and friends of children with disabilities may prefer to pass on it.

I loved everything about this cute little story! The artwork is colorful and bright and reflects children’s lives in a wonderful way. The diversity of three family is beautiful. The story was fun and gave all credit to God for all that we have and do and how we are created. This a great little story to talk to your kids about how God created us, our bodies and their functions.

This sweet picture book’s delightful rhyming message tells children how God loves them—showing everyday situations with which they’re familiar. God made them able to hop and hug and wave and enjoy life. The love that flows beneath the surface of the wonderful text and illustrations warms the heart. This book would make a great addition to every child’s library. I received a copy from Netgalley. All opinions are my own.

Now I am not religious in any way at all so I read the book with an open mind and I have to say that I thought that this book was great, the religious aspects were a light touch and my daughter loved the story so for me that makes it a winner all around!

I thought that the images used were lovely and they added to the story, I liked the way that it was set out too and the emphasis on diversity and that we are all unique.

It is 5 stars from me for this one, I thought it was a fab little story! Very highly recommended!

This book is perfect for any church nursery or Sunday School program. The rhyming narrative is about the young girl talking about all of her wonderful features that God made for her, all leading up to a paraphrasing of Psalm 139:14. It's a lovely message for young children being brought up in the Christian faith.

My favorite part of this book is the adorable illustrations. It is of a supremely happy multiracial family that you can tell absolutely adores each other and just has a lot of fun in their lives. You cannot help but feel happy when looking at their pictures, which just really complements this book.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for my review copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

A delightful rhythmic read for parents to read to their children. It’s a good beginning for children to know God is the one who made them.

This book has the CUTEST illustrations around! The artwork alone makes the book such a pleasure to read with kids -- but the message is good too! I love the rhyming patterns of the text. Would make a wonderful gift for your tiny family members or friends.

This is such a bright, colorful, and sweet board book for toddlers. The illustrations are wonderful. They are large and colourful with various children discussing how they were made and what they can do with the adults in their lives. It is a simple story with easy to understand text for younger children. I love the diversity of the families shown in this story. Basically, the story shares the belief, "It is wonderful news that God made me and you." I read this to my three year old granddaughter and she liked it, although did not interact with the story as much as I thought she might. A cute book for a Christian family library or to read in a Sunday School classroom for toddlers.

First sentence: Who made my fingers wiggle so? Who gave me ten cute toes? Who gave me eyes to peek at you? Who made my button nose? It's God who made my fingers five and counted out each toe. The good news is that God made me--and watches as I grow!

This is a board book for Christian parents (and grandparents) to share with the little ones in their lives. What you see is what you get--a super adorable board book highlighting God's creation and their uniqueness.

It's a lovely little book. I'm happy I got the chance to review it.

Good News! God Made Me, is short rhyming children’s book that depicts God creation of us from our heads to our toes. It’s cute, beautifully written, and well illustrated. I read this story to my 4 month old and will continue to read it to her as a way to teach her to love everything about herself as it was wonderfully crafted by God! 5 stars!!!!!

This is such a bright, colorful, and cheerful board book for toddlers!

With simple, poetic text, and heartwarming illustrations, this book shows a family of three generations, with children contemplating how they were made, and realizing that God made their fingers, eyes, nose, hands, arms, legs, and toes. My favorite quote from this book is “From every hair that’s on my head, right down to my big toe, the good news is that God made me—because God loves me so.”

I highly recommend this book for children ages 1-4.

An adorable book for children. Featuring a mixed-race family, it focuses on how special children are, and how God loves them. It takes them through their fingers, toes, eyes, nose, arms, hands, legs, and mentions some of the things these body parts can do, e.g. hands wave hello, legs to climb and run.
Parents will love sharing this book with their little one, to remind them of just how much they are loved.
