The Plans I Have for You by Amy Parker, Illustrated by Vanessa Brantley-Newton

I wish I'd had a book like The Plans I Made for You when my daughters were young. Amy Parker's story reminds children they are each different and have a special purpose in life. She reflects on the verse Jeremiah 29:11 to show how they can be God's hands and feet and an important person in the kingdom.

As I raised my girls I encouraged them to be themselves and find out what talents and interests fit them. I knew God had a plan for each of them and hoped I could help guide them. This book is perfect for parents to share God's intentions for their lives. Children will enjoy Vanessa Brantley-Newton's vibrant illustrations. I love the page "I've left you instructions-- right here in my book!" with words like love, grace and patience floating around bright-faced children. On the zoo page she's created adorable animals, each labeled appropriately. Children age three to seven years old will enjoy this book.

BookLook Bloggers provided me a free copy of The Plans I Have for You in exchange for a fair review.
