Adam, Adam What Do You See?($28.00Value)

Description

Presents, in rhymed and illustrated text, a variety of questions and answers about Biblical characters and events from the Old and New Testaments. By the author of Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? PreSchool-K-Using the familiar format of Brown Bear, Brown Bear (Holt, 1983), Old and New Testament biblical figures are queried about what they see. Adam sees Creation; Noah sees animals in the ark; Abraham, a starry sky; Joseph, a coat; Moses, the Red Sea parting; Samson, strength from God; Ruth, a new land; Mary, Baby Jesus; Peter, miracles; etc. Each rhymed question and answer has a Scripture quotation cited to lead children to the appropriate Bible story. The final portrayal of what Jesus sees is ambiguous in that it indicates that all of these people are seeking him. The book is thus restricted to use in a Christian setting. In that context, it provides an excellent discussion starter and lead-in to the various stories. The flat, cartoon-style, double-page illustrations, with their interesting perspectives and brilliant colors, are lively and eye-appealing.
