What a fun book! Talking about the Bible and all kinds of feet--including stinky feet!--is a different way to introduce young children to the Bible. The rhyming verse starts out in present day focusing on the feet theme. Then quickly introduces the Bible starting with the comforting story in the Old Testament of Noah (and his hairy feet) keeping God's creatures safe. After a few other OT stories, the book progresses to the New Testament with Jesus' birth, ministry, death, and resurrection. I love the way the book then brings the reader back to present day: "And ever since that Easter Day, Christ's followers have found a way with faithful feet from place to place to spread God's love and share God's grace." The illustrations represent a number of children so everyone will be able to relate. Faithful Feet offers a new way to connect with the Bible and a great addition to Bible story retellings!
