The title says it all with this book. As parents we work so hard to keep our children safe. We do these things because we love our children. Even though our children don't quite understand. We teach them, we lead them by example but in the end the choice is up to our children. This wonderful book by Max Lucado sums it all up. Shaddai creates a beautiful world for his children and then builds a wall to keep them safe from the outside dangers. This wall however has one small hole. Shaddai has one child that finds the hole and is curious about it. Shaddai tells him not to go through but as most children he does anyway....Heartbreaking as it is, Shaddai must let the child learn his lesson the hard way. Sounds familiar doesn't it? In addition to the fabulous message this book offers the artwork is outstanding! Mitchell Heinze is the illustrator. The illustrations are very lifelike and detailed.Read full review
This book is probably the best of the whole series that Max Lucado has written. I read this book to my son after we had some problems in the family. It helps young children completely understand just how special they really are. Excellent book to read to children of all ages, with disabilities. In fact, I know some adults that need to read this book. It helps children understand that the only person we need to be worried about is God. It doesn't matter what others think, our maker, God is happy with us just the way we are. He understands that we are going to "mess up" and always there waiting to help us.
