About the book

Hello, world! First, everything was dark… then God said, “Let there be light!” Day by day come the big blue sky, splashy seas, popping seeds and yummy fruit trees, the sun and twinkly stars, swishy fish, peeping baby birds, roaring lions, stomping elephants, and the very first people, Adam and Eve. And on day seven, a special day to rest: Shabbat.
