All God's Critters

Reach for this book when your child feels like they do not fit in or when they are struggling to find their own 'voice' in a group. It is an ideal choice for moments of self-doubt or when you want to celebrate the beauty of a diverse, harmonious community. Based on the classic folk song by Bill Staines, the story follows a vibrant assembly of animals, from the braying donkey to the singing bird, all contributing to a grand musical tapestry. Kadir Nelson's stunning illustrations elevate the simple, rhythmic text into a powerful message about belonging and self-worth. It emphasizes that every creature has a place in the choir, whether they sing low, high, or just clap their hands. This book is perfect for children aged 3 to 7, providing a comforting and joyful reminder that our individual differences are exactly what make the world's song so beautiful.
