“You are my hands and my feet there on Earth,” narrator God says to an array of kids. “I’ve given you apurpose---it’s been there since birth!” Splashy, energetic illustrations introduce us to the YOU Factory, acolorful, Willy Wonka–style building where God makes kids, imbuing them with all the skills they willneed to be successful in life. Each has a specific purpose---a nurse, a zookeeper, an entomologist---and areencouraged to find the one thing that inspires them. The factory metaphor may not hold up under intensescrutiny, but the find-your-passions message is an appealing one. The joyful, rhyming text and bright,whimsical illustrations make this well suited for read-alouds, and the religious elements are gently woveninto the story---though God and the Bible both appear, neither is referred to by name---making thissomewhat more accessible to a wider denomination. Parents raising their children to have faith in boththemselves and in a higher power will appreciate this offering.--- Maggie Reagan
Amy Parker's August release, The Plans I Have For You is sure to become a favorite of children ages three to seven although the recommendec;l age is 4-8. The rhythmic, rhyming text, enhanced by the whimsical illustrations of Vanessa Brantley-Newton, teach children are unique. Each one created with special talents and abilities according to God's plan and purpose found in Jeremiah 29: 11.'For I know the plans I have for you...plans to prosper you and not to harm you...plans to give you hope and a future.'Written from God's point-of-view, the jacketed thirty-two page hardcover uses story-in-rhyme to teach about Jesus, the Bible and God's plan for the reader.'You are my hands and my feet there on Earth. I've given you a purpose- it's been there since birth.' 'I've left you instructions - right here in my book. So open it often - and take a good look.'Colorful illustrations mirror a variety of trades, professions and careers such as pilots, builders, chefs, doctors, nurses, artists and musicians who dance across two-page spreads to ignite children's dreams. This Christian themed children's book, The Plans I Have For You is sure to become a family favorite.
For Christian children wondering what God has in store for them, Parker (My Christmas List) offers a playfully reassuring rhyme, written from the perspective of an enthusiastic deity. The focus is on future careers ('I need you in a hospital/ and you at the zoo./ You'll be an entomologist/ in a forest in Peru'), though a spread in which four children peruse a Bible is decorated with words like 'patience' and 'kindness,' emphasizing altruistic values. Brantley-Newton (My Three Best Friends and Me, Zulay) draws from an array of visual influences in her always energetic illustrations. In one early scene, a hand points out at readers from a cloud, like an Uncle Sam recruitment poster; elsewhere, children sit on an assembly line (which stretches over several pages) as robot arms outfit them with stethoscopes, musical instruments, and other gear. Parker's meter can be slightly shaky, and there's an overreliance on certain rhymes (you/do gets a workout, in particular), but the encouraging tone, range of careers represented, and ethnically diverse cast create the sense that the sky's the limit.
The Plans I Have for You is a rhyming picture book by Amy Parker that introduces the Scripture of Jeremiah 29:11. A diverse cast of children learn that God has given everyone unique talents and a purpose for each of them.God Himself is the voice of the story, opening with, “Hey, YOU! I’ve got big plans for you!” With Amy Parker’s lighthearted verse, He motivates children to open their hearts, read the Bible, explore their passions, and discover His path for their lives. “You are my hands and my feet there on Earth,” He tells the children, with the comforting message that He has equipped us with all that we need to find our way in the world.Lively illustrations and creative graphics by Vanessa Brantley-Newton show multi-ethnic children engaged in all sorts of professions, suggesting a promise of fulfilling futures that await. The bright scenes are tender and engaging, with a touch of humor (a busy nurse has seven arms) and the constant reminder of a guiding presence.With its sing-song cadence, timeless message, and whimsical artwork, The Plans I Have for You is an entertaining read as well as a teaching tool. Just as the young characters on the cover float contentedly on colorful parachutes, this delightful story will make the heart soar.Nina Ditmar, CLJ
