“This book was a joy for my kids (ages 7, 5 and 2) to read! We had incredible discussions about identity, God’s design and His love for humanity. The visual of the baby developing in the womb was their favorite part and we are so excited to use this as a continued resource for discipleship.”

Stunning and Valuable Resource
Review byRachel
This book is stunning!
It is a large hardback book with thick card stock pages. The content is detailed and well given. The book overall is engaging to all ages as it includes fold outs, flaps, and other interactive pieces. The fold out pages of the facts and weekly growth and development of a baby in the womb are extremely beautiful and interesting. You can't help but read every word.
The book covers very clearly how we are ALL wonderfully loved and crafted by God each with our own unique DNA and characteristics. The book discusses sensitive topics like pregnancy and infant loss, premature birth, adoption, and abortion with such care that it is appropriate for all ages.
This is a perfect book for any family who will be adding a new baby. It is ideal for discussion and explanation with children. It is informative for the new parents to be.
As a mom, ministry wife, and crisis pregnancy counselor, I believe this is a valuable resource that should be in every home, church, and pregnancy center.

Beautiful
Review byCrystal
This book is beautiful and has great information. My children reach for it often and ask to go through it. We love it so much that I will be getting another one for a friend who recently learned she is pregnant. What a wonderful resource it will be for her family to have so her children can see all the different stages their little brother or sister are in.

Beautiful book!
Review byAshlee
We love this book!! It is so well done! It really affirms that God made each of us & knew us all by name from conception. Every one should have this book on their shelf! It talks about all of the stages of a baby forming without how mom & dad make the baby. There are absolutely beautiful pictures & I feel this book has given my children a good, strong foundation on a biblical view point of babies! There is a touch a hard subjects abortion & miscarriage but it's done in a way where you can talk more about those topics if you feel your children are ready for that or leave it at the paragraph written about each. I love that when speaking if abortion they say: just because someone has done this doesn't mean they're condemned, they can be forgiven if they repent! Because we have Jesus & he made it so all of our sins can be forgiven.
I truly LOVE this book! It's amazing at equipping our children with facts both Bible facts & science facts to be able to defend their faith on the issue of "when does life begin?"

Absolutely beautiful
Review byMichelle
We are expecting a new baby soon, and our two children (6 and 3) have asked so many questions and are so curious about the process. This book has been able to answer so many of their questions and in a beautiful way. Thank you for publishing such a great book for our family library.

A wonderful celebration of life and family
Review byLynette
I LOVE this book! My children and I were all together in the living room the other night and I began to read out loud. At first only the 8 year old was interested, but slowly the others became curious as they listened to me read. By the end of the book all four kids ages 5-11 were listening in. The book was wonderful for answering the question my 5 year old had on ‘where do Babies live and grow inside mommy?’, to more advanced questions the older kids had. It’s a great book that celebrates how wonderfully unique and special each and every individual is on this planet. I loved the emphasis on special needs and foster/adopted children. We are all wonderfully made in His image.

A Wonderful Resource to teach the Value of Life
Review byKristy
Crafted by God pleasantly surprised me when I opened the box! It is a large book filled with beautiful, colorful pages that fold out; detailed, intricate pictures; and engaging, interactive flaps. This book captures the Biblical truth that we are made in the image of God, and He values all life! Each life is precious to our Heavenly Father! What a treasure to teach to our children! The text teaches many lessons from Scripture combined with the physiology from fertilization to birth. A perfect book to gift to family and friends!

Beautiful and Fantastic Resource!!
Review byAmy
This book is a perfect representation of truth in how humanity was created in the image of God!! In a time where the world is teaching many falsehoods about life, gender, and sexuality, this book clearly presents God’s purposes for all of those things in a way that is appropriate, honest, meaningful, and practical. The pictures and descriptions are perfectly done and the value of life is clearly represented for all stages, ages, and circumstances! This would be an amazing resource for churches, ministries, and in the home!
