New Jewish Children's Book Helps Children Appreciate Nature

Book Review

Remarkable Park by Bracha Goetz

Remarkable Park is a new extraordinarily illustrated picture book that opens children
eyes and ears to the spiritual messages found in each creation of our
natural world. When children take a walk through this remarkable
park, they find a new appreciation for nature!

What does a frog, an eagle, a puppy dog, and even an apple tree have in common? In Remarkable Park, children find that they all have
something important to say. This is no make-believe “talking
animal” story, however. It's a book about what is really going on
all around us. While sharing quality time with our children,
Remarkable Park inspires us to pause, notice and marvel together at
the amazing creatures and plants that we may have easily overlooked
before. After reading this book, your child may even look at a
little ant on the sidewalk with renewed respect!

                                                      




The responsibility given to us by God to guard and protect our wondrous
environment is often forgotten. As one young woman who just got the
book observed, “I think it is wonderful for children and
adults to learn to
see God in the wonders of everyday beauty!” Remarkable Park
reminds each of us how valuable – and how enjoyable – the gift
of life on Earth is.

Summertime is an opportune time to explore and discover what this special book makes vividly clear to children and adults alike:

Remarkable parks – they're everywhere!

All you have to do is LOOK.

Hashem made this world to talk to us,

Just like an open book!

Remarkable Park is available in Judaica stores and online from Feldheim publishers.
This is the twelfth children's book for author, Bracha Goetz, who
enjoys giving presentations of her books “in places near and far –
but just for ages 2 to 120!” Mrs. Goetz, who became a baaleis
teshuva after graduating with honors from Harvard University,
explains that she loves, through writing children books, to “simplify
life's deepest concepts.”
