This lively picture book follows a young boy around a farm as he observes different animals and compares their protective shelters to God's protection. The rhyming text is accompanied by bold, playful illustrations that tell their own story of God's protection as a rain storm causes the boy to seek shelter of his own. A charming book for young children that demonstrates God's constant care.

The rhyming text and colorful illustrations beautifully support the simple faith-based message of trusting that God's protection always surrounds us." --Kristi Holl, author of Finding God in Tough Times, a devotional for girls 8-12 "With fun vibrant images, clever rhymes and evident imagination, Amy Houts has written an essential book for young readers and adults alike providing a fresh reminder and encouraging truth of God's protection.
