From School Library Journal: "Simultaneously simple and majestic, this benediction of a book is recommended for first purchase."

Inspired by a Jewish blessing (but not overtly religious), this text celebrates the beauty of life, sorrows and all. Frazee is one of my favorite illustrators, and this gorgeous book doesn't disappoint.

This would be a great book for Primary or Intermediate Readers
This book is about the many different experiences that occur in life, and how beautiful and real life is.
This would be a great book to read aloud or to have in a classroom library, especially if the readers are young because there are beautiful illustrations that tell the bulk of the story.

This is a beautiful book. This book shows life in beautiful ways through Faith. I would recommend this book for an elementary classroom because of the simple words and pictures. This book can teach about life and give students a different look on life. I think this book would be an appropriate book to have in a Christian school setting. ( )

This was a beautiful book about the different stages of life that everyone goes through. This book is a very wholesome way of portraying the differences in individuals all across the world. This book had amazing illustrations and it was very beautiful. I think this book can be for any age because the story of the book remains true for all ages.
