Because Nothing Looks Like God Hardcover – October 1, 2000

We were recommended this book for our Grandson’s Catechism. It’s such a sweet book and Love the diversity it displays.

This book is a must-read for any family of faith. It helps children understand that God, an abstract concept, can be perceived in concrete things and situations. I gave it four stars instead of five because my four-year old wasn't incredibly excited about it and it seemed a little drawn-out to me. That said, we will continue to read it during devotions because it is a very valuable tool for helping children know God. I think that it would also be an excellent book to read to Sunday school classes and even a conversation starter for youth and adults.

Introduced to this book a few years ago by a friend's rabbi during a children's sabbath celebration, my husband and I were quite impressed. The art is so inviting to look at. But more importantly, the content is worth sharing with children you want to share a positive image of faith with very early on -- whether they are children who share your own religion or are in another religion that you respect.We are Christian and have now shared this lovely book with children in our congregation, children in other Christian denominations (both Catholic and Protestant) and children being raised with Jewish traditions. We hope it will be a blessing to many -- adults and children -- as it has been to us.

I bought this book about a year ago for my daughter (now 5 and 1/2) as she had started asking a lot of questions about God. One of her friend's Mom's saw the book at our house and thought it looked nice and wanted to borrow it. I decided to order one for her. This book doesn't try to answer some very difficult questions about God, but it does try to give the child the sense that God is everywhere and is a part of our lives all of the time and in every situation. It is simply written and beautifully illustrated. A great book for children of any religion.

Love that this book teaches God as more of a spiritual, connective energy in the world, rather than this white guy in heaven telling us what to do. Perfect for my daughter who goes to a Catholic school but is being raised as a Unitarian Universalist. Book is endorsed by Catholic church but is much more UU. Nothing controversial, more inclusive...

Thank you God for loving us😇and showing your children how to love and take care of one another! Amen and again I say Amen!

Very well written for any religion or regardless of religion.

I recommend this book to all of my friends! It's such a great way to talk to your child about God, regardless of religious denomination.

Lovely
