In Our Image: God's First Creatures

Illustrated by Melanie Hall

Non-denominational, non-sectarian. Endorsed by Protestant, Catholic, and Jewish religious leaders. For ages 4 and up.

"In the beginning, God created the heaven and the earth . . . but something was missing . . ." Before creating humans, God said, "Let us make humans in our image, after our likeness." In this playful new twist to the Genesis story, God asks all of nature to offer gifts to humankind - with a promise that the humans would care for creation in return.
