A delightful read! Ruth's artwork is an added joy, filling the pages with beauty. In my opinion, this would make a great gift for a newly converted or already saved child's bookshelf. What a beautiful reminder for those in Christ!

I received a free ARC (advanced reader copy) from the publisher in exchange for my honest review.

Psalm 23 has been a chapter that I have been speaking over my life and God has being speaking over me. This story with it's beautiful illustrations brought tears to my eyes. It will be one I will be purchasing to read to future generations, as well as to have a reminder for myself when I forget the beauty of the fact that "Home is right where I am".

Ruth Chou Simons generously shares her talents, insights, and heart with the world in this gorgeous-beyond-gorgeous book. “Home is Right Where You Are” reminds us all that no moment— spectacular or mundane, exhilarating or sorrowful —will separate us from Our Good Father. Based on Psalm 23, the lyrical text and dream-like illustrations demonstrate that while circumstances may change, our home does not.

What a perfect gift for a dedication, baptism, graduation, or truly just to plant the seed of Truth on a random Tuesday.

What a great message and such beautiful illustrations! I'm not sure exactly who the audience should be for the book - it seems like an adult would understand it way more than a kid. But my daughter enjoyed the rhyming and cadence!

Whether you are the parent or the child this small book will strengthen and preserve. Both the visual and verbal interpretation brings the meaning of the psalm into an even more personal understanding.
The illustrations by the author are beautiful in pastel, with soothing colors, and adds to the meaning.
Well suited for reading alone or WITH someone of any age including ESL, and great for gifting to anyone aged 3-110, but especially to a school, church library, or your local public library!
I requested and received a free temporary uncorrected e-proof on Adobe Digital Editions from Tommy Nelson via NetGalley. Thank you!

Ruth Chou Simons delivers a beautiful picture book. Each page's artwork delighted my eyes, and her encouraging, Scripture based verse, is music to my ears. This is a short but sweet book to read to littles, to give to a graduate, and everything in between. I'll be buying a copy for my own shelves!

Ruth Chou Simons does it again. Everything she publishes is gorgeous. The poetry of Psalm 23 is beautifully adapted to a children’s reading level AND rhyme in English. There is something so satisfying about that. I will definitely be purchasing this to add to our children’s library!

Absolutely beautiful! The poetic writing delivers a wonderful message of God’s love and constant care for each of us. This is something I needed to hear today for sure. Illustrations were magical! Loved it!
