Ava, Leo, and the Making Hands

Five Read-Aloud Stories About Creating and Caring With God

God is the Creator, and He made us to create too. This book helps little ones see that their hands, ideas, and imaginations are gifts from God, meant to bring joy to others. Ava and Leo learn to make things and share them, to put a tablet down when it is time to be together, to marvel at the good things people build, to share fairly, and to work together on something joyful.
