This is a review for the Children’s book Is Good Still Awake written by Sheila Wash. I received a copy of the book in exchange for a spot in our Christmas Gift Guide 2021: Books for Children.
I sat down this morning to read Is God Still Awake. II was reading the book I found myself also asking the question Is God Still Awake but through the story I found the answer and I like how it mentions the Bible. Which makes this the perfect book to use in our Homeschool Bible Class.
Charlie also loved hearing all the things she does and the questions asked in the book. Charlie and I loved the illustrations. We can’t wait to share Is God Still Awake with my nieces and nephews. As well as my sister who may want to pick up a copy for her home.
About:
n this delightful full-color picture book that teaches children about prayer, bestselling author Sheila Walsh helps you show your kids how, when, and why to talk with God as they learn more of who God is and how much He loves them!
Inspired by the ways God has used her book Praying Women, Sheila Walsh wanted to share her passion for prayer with kids–a passion that began when she was a little girl who wondered if God could hear her any time of the day or night.
Is God Still Awake? introduces curious young readers to Poppy: a little girl who has big questions about God! Poppy wants to know how to talk with God and whether God listens to her. As she goes through her day with her cat by her side, Poppy discovers that God is always there–even when the world is asleep!
With humorous, rhyming text, Is God Still Awake? assures children that God loves them and is always with them. Whether it’s day or night, God is awake, He’s listening, and He loves to hear His children speak!
This whimsical jacketed picture book is a perfect gift for:
- children ages 4 to 8
- Christmas, baptisms, birthdays
- children beginning their faith journey
- grandparents to share their faith across the miles
- traveling, snuggling, or bedtime reading
