God's Masterpiece

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • ECPA BESTSELLER • Join the author of Flashlight Night in this fun picture book tour of an art museum! As kids marvel at the vibrant colors and incredible designs, they learn that God has crafted them as His very own works of art.

Join two curious children on an adventure through an art museum in this charming celebration of how God made us. From Claude Monet’s peaceful water lilies to Georgia O’Keeffe’s stunning flowers, every piece the children see reflects the artist’s God-given creativity.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck’s rhyming text connects the dots (or dot-dot-dots, in the case of master of pointillism Georges Seurat) to how God himself lovingly creates each of his children. On the last page of the book, kids will discover their own reflection in an inset mirror surrounded by an illustrated frame announcing that they are God’s masterpiece!

Our God makes us one of a kind!
You’re priceless, don’t you see
Because there is no other you
and there is no other me!
