From the Publisher

Jesus loves me, this I know, for the whole world tells me so.
Filled with joyful rhymes and hidden Bible verses, your family will love this perfect bedtime book.

Jesus loves me, this I know...

Girl playing with dog.

...for my puppy tells me so.

She makes us all laugh, she is always so playful,

But what I love most is how God made her FAITHFUL.

Dad and son climbing mountain.

...for the mountain tells me so.

And there in the rocks, God knows each flower blossom

So fragile and frail, on a mountain so AWESOME.

Girl enjoying snow.

...for the snowflakes tell me so.

God blankets the world in a loving embrace

With fresh fallen snow, like amazing new GRACE.

Kids playing in fall leaves.

...for the fall leaves tell me so.

Though leaves are now falling and done with their duty,

Each season of life is still filled with God's BEAUTY.

Author Clay Anderson

From author Clay Anderson...

Since becoming a dad, I've sung Jesus Loves Me to my kids thousands of times. And one of those nights, I started thinking about how the Bible tells us of God's love ... and so does everything God made. We can know God from the world He made, as we see His character in His creation.

And in that moment, a book was born.

''Since becoming a dad, I've found myself enchanted by children’s picture books. There's nothing quite like them—charming, whimsical, heartfelt, funny, artful, poignant. They capture my children’s imagination and wonder, and they reignite my own. So I decided it was time to start writing.''

This book is BEAUTIFUL but came damaged :(
Got this book as a Christmas gift for my daughter and was so excited to read it early! The illustrations and storyline is beautifully written but the book came damaged :( there are 2 stains in the front of the book that don’t wash off and a corner on 2-3 pages are damaged. It won’t defer us from reading of course but was disappointed.

    “For His invisible attributes, namely, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made” (Romans 1:20). This I Know: Seeing God in the World He Made by Clay Anderson with illustrations by Natalie Merheb, follows a little girl and her family on their day “of adventure, of exploring, of running and hiking and swimming and soaring!” They see God reflected in every aspect of their adventure through the beautiful world He has created.

    A little girl has been waiting all year for their family road trip, and today is finally the day! What will she discover on a day full of God’s joy? First stop is the beach, “God’s world is so big and so wonderous and wild.” Oh no, will a thunderstorm ruin their day? Of course not, for “Jesus loves me, this I know, even thunder tells me so.” And after the storm is a rainbow stretching across the sky. “Sometimes the storms are His grace in disguise.” God’s world is so big, she sees His love in the mountains, the snow, the fireflies, the crickets, and so much more! She never wants the day to end, but she can rest in God’s peace, knowing that Jesus loves her for the Bible tells her so.

    This stunning rhyming book filled with God’s grace and beauty is a must-have for every home library! The whole family will enjoy reading this one together. Most people know the song, “Jesus Loves Me,” and I love how this book expands on the song, showing kids Jesus loves them, for the whole universe and world shows them! From the moment you wake-up, God’s love is all around you. I hope this book encourages kids to notice God’s creation and how incredible it is!

    The illustrations are colorful and captivating! These nature-filled pictures reveal God’s beauty. I especially love how there is a Bible verse hidden somewhere on every page. Take the time to look them up. The end of the book also leaves room for kids to write how they see God in the world He made. The attributes of God are highlighted throughout this book, and it teaches kids that: “God is here and He’s there and He’s always wherever, He’s now and He’s then and He will be FOREVER.”

    5.0 out of 5 stars Well-written poetry that will connect and engage children, and illustrated beautifully
    Reviewed in the United States on December 17, 2024
    Verified Purchase
    This children's book is lovely from start to finish. It engages children's imagination, and the message of God's love is clear and ever-present. I especially love how the author highlights the emotions of wonder and awe, which are waning in our society. It's important to cultivate a sense of wonder and awe regarding God's incredible creation. These emotions improve mental health as well as a sense of God's love, creativity, and with-ness.
    The illustrations will engage children from preschool to elementary age, and the words will touch their tender hearts. Rhyming especially engages children's minds.
    This book will most certainly be a favorite for my granddaughters. I look forward to reading and re-reading it, as I read books like this one to my girls.

    What a wonderful children’s story book about God. Written to help and encourage our children to grow in their faith. I watched/listened to the video version on Facebook at 5am (U.K. time) and the narration, by the author himself; was beautiful, with soothing melodic tones.

    The illustrations are detailed and presented on each page beautifully, extremely well done and I love the page repetition of ‘Jesus Loves Me, This I Know, For The ( ) Tells Me So’.

    The cover is enough to draw you in, it’s truly beautiful! Then, from the very first page onwards, it has you fall in love with it a little bit more. The illustrations are wonderful and the ability to rhyme well and tell a story of God without being pushy or bias makes this book so amazing. I read the kindle version, but I’ll be buying the hardback for sure, even if just for the gorgeous cover (it’s not just for that). Well done!
