Greene Beans #1
A poetic retelling of Genesis 1 is told fairly well and illustrated well, but the big issue is that it leaves us stranded at the end of the creation tale and does not cover the tragedy f the fall, or the triumph of salvation through Christ.
We are not lead to Christ through this tale, and it is basically a Jewish tale and not a Christian tale.
A book can't cover everything but it needs more than stranding us without an understanding of Jesus.

A great book for meditative and spiritual contemplation - art is great and the words special.

This book seems to be the standard God created light, and animals, and man. There isn't anything overwhelmingly unique about this book except it is written as a continuous poem.
