Sixteen psalms have been beautifully brought to life by Elizabeth Allstrom's meaningful explanations and Mel Silverman's unique woodcut illustrations. Each psalm is presented as a separate chapter with a title that captures the essence of the psalm. Psalm 23 is entitled, A Song of the Shepherd: Psalm 148 is entitled, A Song That Calls to Nature; and Psalm 67 is called, Two Songs for Harvest Time. Although some of the woodcut illustrations are done in black and white, those in color are strikingly rendered in gold and blue. A truly moving introduction to Biblical poetry for children ranging in age from 8 to 11.
