God Gave Us Love

In God Gave us Love, Little Cub is out fishing with her grandfather. She is not pleased when the otters are scaring away the fish! But Grampa Bear carefully explains that they can share their fishing spot. He tells her that showing love to others, both families and friends, is something we can do to share God's love. We know God loves us because he sent his Son to show us. Delightfully written and beautifully illustrated.

My daughters loved this book. I think we all at times wonder about love and how it works. In this book Little Cub is taught about love and how God is behind all the love in the world. I love the message, my kids love the pictures, and all together it's a wonderful book. This book was provided for review by Multnomah Publishers.

My 3-year old and 5-year old love this and other Lisa Tawn Bergren books! In this excellent children's book, Little Cub is back and talking about feelings and loving even when you don't feel like it and even when you don't want to. It talks about love and its true meaning and motives - not just warm fuzzy feelings - although there's plenty of that too! Lisa definitely grasps God's love and pens it into words in ways that children relate too! I think that this book is beautifully written and illustrated!

Wonderfully illustrated and beautifully written book for young children to learn about loving others and the love of Christ! I think kids will really enjoy this book while learning important lessons at the same time!

This is the continuation of the God Gave Us series. I love this series. In very simple easy to understand terms it opens dialogue between child and parent and it answers questions of children. If you are familiar with the series you will recognize Little Cub and his Polar Bear Family. In God Gave Us Love, Little Cub and Grampa are fishing. The Otters scare away the fish. Grampa uses the opportunity to explain the Little Cub that God wants us to show love to everyone. "It's something deep withinus, Something I can't totally explain-- Only that God is love, so he created us to love. He ties us all together like the Strings on our snowshoes, heart to heart." The plot and text is beautifully done. The illustrations a magnificent and add to the story. This book and the whole set would make a wonderful gift. I think it is important that we read to our children. It gives us the opportunity to talk and share. It also encourages our children to read. This is the type of book I want to share with my grandchildren.
