About God’s Paintbrush
Through fantasy, involvement and the imagination, God’s Paintbrush invites children of all faiths and backgrounds to encounter God openly through moments in their own lives—and helps the adults who love them to be a part of that interactive encounter. This book provides a gift of images that nurture and encourage children in making meaning of their world.
 “A very special book to help stimulate children’s religious imagination to think about God.”
 —Rev. Theodore M. Hesburgh, C.S.C., President Emeritus, University of Notre Dame
 “The most exciting religious children’s book I have seen in years. It helps a child think of God as a very special friend.”
 —Sylvia Avner, Children’s Librarian, 92nd St. Y, New York City
 “An excellent way to honor the imaginative breadth and depth of the spiritual life of the young.”
 —Dr. Robert Coles, Harvard University, author of The Spiritual Life of Children
 “Gives children a palette rich with images to engage their discovery of a quality of relationship with God.”
  —Professor Nelle G. Slater, Christian Theological Seminary
 “A wonderfully interactive book that will open the souls of children and of their
parents who read it to them.”
 —Rabbi Harold Kushner, author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People

children’s book this year, buy this one.”
