God Made You, My Darling Boy

＂This book is an affirmation of who our boys were made to be: godly men who are strong, wise, and loving. I picture my own son as I read these words!＂

When Kelsie Detweiler was looking for a good book that would teach her own young children they were perfectly created by their loving Creator, she discovered there weren’t a lot of books out there that celebrated His beautiful intent for each one of us. Wanting something that would show her son he was ＂fearfully and wonderfully made,＂ Detweiler developed a beautiful picture book to discuss the uniqueness of each boy. The result is God Made You, My Darling Boy-a delightful, age-appropriate book to help begin the conversation about God’s handiwork in our creation and what it means to be a boy. Also available is the companion book, God Made You, My Darling Girl.
