“The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it.” Psalm 24:1
Indeed. From the jungle to the field, from mountains to meadows, cities, to countryside, trees to dandelions, all are reminders to worship the God who created them. Every evidence of beauty and design points to the Creator who knows and loves us intimately.
Days, seasons, harvest time, sounds of activity and busyness, fellowship and freedom, color and cold, from the ends of the earth God’s Name is be praised.
The book closes with more verses from Psalms and identification of the countries represented throughout the books. The illustrations are a lovely complement to the text, making this a worthy addition to a home or church library.

Recommended Reading at Redeemed Reader
- Book Review: The Watcher by Nikki Grimes, listed in our Back to School Picture Books list, is an extraordinary achievement. It uses Psalm 121 and the Golden Shovel technique to discuss bullying, friendship, and how we treat our neighbors.
- Book Review: Wonderfull: Ancient Psalms Ever New by Marty Machowski is a thematic arrangement of Psalms woven around a story.
- Book Review: Two picture books use the text of Psalms to tell a story with illustrations by Tim Ladwig (also from Eerdmans)
- Book Review: A Light for My Path: An ABC book based on Psalm 119. This is now only available digitally, but it’s lovely.
