Media Reviews
This delightful book for young children proclaims the life-changing message of God's wonderful love. It uses a simple but attractive rhyming style. Our hero is Robin - a redbreast. Although he sleeps soundly in his nest just as the other birds do, on waking at the sun's rising he finds it impossible to join their dawn chorus: `...he tried and he tried ... but there wasn't a peep or a whistle inside'. There was something wrong deep in his heart. `He was weary and dreary and empty of song.' Then one night an amazing thing happens. A dazzling, celestial bird brings a message from beyond the skies: `All creatures are made by the good Lord above, And He wants them to know of His wonderful love.' As the sun rises, Robin's whole world seems somehow new. In wonder he says, `The Lord loves me!' And to his surprise and delight a song swells in his breast: `Crochets and quavers escape from his bill, and even a hint of a tinkling trill!' Author and illustrator, Linda Owen, beautifully brings meaning and narrative to Psalm 40:3: `He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God.' Young children will grasp what it means to live in the light of God's life-changing love. The charming illustrations of our hero and his friends bring a warm and personal touch to what will become a much read a beloved storybook. -- Steve King
