Praise
Another gorgeous story from Glenys Nellist. This time, Glenys masterfully draws us into the rhythm and rhymes of the seasons and how they speak (and sing!) of God's goodness and presence in this world.
Caryn Rivadeneira, author of the newly released Frankinschool: The Cupsnake Escape and Grit and Grace: Heroic Women of the Bible
For many generations the Psalms have shaped our spiritual imaginations, immersing us in a world where trees clap their hands and stones shout in praise of their Maker. Inspired by Psalm 98, Song of the Seasons calls young readers to explore just such a world—one where every season has its own music and way of witnessing to the presence of God in the midst of change. Friendship and exploration are also woven into the vibrant illustrations of this gentle and reassuring hymn of praise.
Laura Alary, award-winning author of Here: The Dot We Call Home and many other books
Psalm 98 begins by encouraging us to sing a new song to God. Through delightful rhymes and wonderful imagery, in word and picture, Song of the Seasons encourages us to listen deeply to the songs of God all around us in creation. Listening deeply, children and adults alike may also hear the song of God in their own hearts.
Bishop David Alan Bard, Michigan Area of The United Methodist Church
The combination of Glenys Nellist's simple, elegant use of rhyme and illustrator C.B. Canga's whimsical illustrations and deft use of color make Song of the Seasons a truly special book. Children and their grownups are invited to "hear the seasons speak" and to remember that God made us, and we are good. What a lovely book...for any time of year!
