I recently had the chance to get a copy of One Hands, Two Hands by Max Lucado thanks to BookSneeze.com.
Details …
A delightful way to show little ones how their hands are a blessing from God that they can use to do help others.
Written in rhyming text and illustrated with the charming art of Gaby Hansen, this simple message of God’s blessing of hands not only entertains . . . as it teaches what wonderful things our hands can do from scratching, latching, and petting a pup to washing dishes with mommy and putting toys in a box . . . but it also conveys the important message: We can use God’s gift of hands to show our love for Him by helping others. The book ends tenderly with a prayer of thanks to God for hands and asks Him to use them again:
One hand, two hands,
Five fingers, ten.
God, thanks, for my hands.
Please, use them again.
My thoughts …
My girls love this book. We let them pick a bedtime story each night and this is a frequent pick. They love to listen to all of the things your hands do during the day and then the prayer at the end of the book. They always end it with a big “Amen” which puts a big grin on my face for the night. A great bedtime book for the little ones in your life!
