A feminist interpretation of the creation story for pre-schoolers! What more can I say? It's a fabulous book and will shape your child's view of God in a positive and joyful way.

I loved this book. Most children will recognise the plot, but the new twist on it takes it away from religion, and lets it become just a beautiful idea on its own. The illustrations are wonderful, and I just think the idea of a Mama making the world is so refreshing. A great book to share with a small child.

My children really enjoyed this book and found both the text and illustrations fun. They are both learning to read (aged 5 and 6) and loved the repetition at the end of each page. It is a great book to 'reclaim' the Creation story from patriarchy, and to relate it in a way that children understand and relate to - a busy Mummy with a baby making the environment nice for her child. Fantastic.
