A Blessing from Above (Little Golden Book)

by Patti Henderson

Elizabeth Edge (Illustrator)

A beautiful story about adoption—and how each child is a blessing.

Every night before she goes to sleep, a kangaroo prays under the stars for a baby to love and hold. One day, as she rests under a tree, a baby bird falls out of its crowded nest—plop!—right into her pouch!

Now, every night before they fall asleep, Momma-Roo and Little One thank God for all their blessings . . . but especially for each other.

The book closes with a quote from Ephesians 1:5: “In love he destined us for adoption to himself. . . .”

This is another one we read from the library READS and overdrive program. It is a Christian Little Golden Book on the theme of adoption and it J's from the late 90s so to myind it is a newer one. I quite like the illustrations and for those involved in adoption I think ot would make a great gift.
