The Blessing Of The Lord
Stories From The Old And New Testaments
BY GARY SCHMIDT, ILLUSTRATED BY DENNIS NOLAN
Brief Description:
"In a smooth, poetic style, Schmidt retells twenty-five Bible stories, emphasizing the humanity of the characters. For example, he fills out Noah's story with a description of the despair Noah and his family feel, trapped on the Ark not knowing if they will ever see land again. The elaborations retain the tone of the original stories but extend them to explore motivations and emotions. Nolan's handsome paintings are suitably majestic or gentle." - Horn Book
