Waterbrook Partner Review: God Speaks in Whispers by Mark Batterson and Summer Batterson Dailey

 



What I like about the book:
  • Physical book, good size, solid cover, thick pages to last over many hands and years.  
  • Illustrations by Benedetta Caprotti- realistic, diverse characters. including a wheelchair, different ages, skin tones, hair, etc.  Pictures are warm, endearing, and draw the reader in, perfectly kidlike.  
  • The rhythm/rhyme of the book adds to its charm. 
  • Questions that will build listener response and interactions, as well as conversations. 
  • Answers that will continue the conversation. 
  • Showing who God is.
  
Educational Connections
  • God's Voice- how does God talk to us since it's not audible? and answered- with His Word.
  • Sound
  • Emotions- identifying them. 
  • Elements of God's character, with you, waiting, pointing the way, ...

What I wonder about the book:  
  • why there are no verses within the pages.  
  • some of the rhymings seemed a bit forced.  
  • it's a long book will littles sit for the whole thing?
