Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
From School Library Journal Grade 36 In the desert of the Holy Land, 2500 years ago, a father begins to tell his preadolescent son "what happened on the first morning of the world." His account focuses on the content and the context of creation, and on its timeless significance, rather than echoing the words of the Bible. Certain themeslike human stewardship of the earthspeak especially to us, but seem also to belong to a subsistence culture of desert nomads. Lemoine's watercolorspure, linear, minimal, but with touches of expressionistic coloralso combine the "primitive" and the contemporary. The text depends on Genesis A, omitting the B version's Eden, serpent, sin, and expulsion. Its sole borrowing from B is the creation of woman from man's rib instead of her cocreation, from clay, with man, and some readers may not feel that B's version "means that woman is the equal of man." The author has gracefully incorporated some ideas from midrashic commentaries, and the expanded story is fresh and at times poetic. It is also rather long, with a sophisticated vocabulary and concepts. The picture book format, even with Lemoine's stark and beautiful images, may make the audience for this book problematic.
