The power went out and there I sat, 5 kids and the 3rd day of homeschooling. Thankfully I had this wonderful book, “Who Created Everything“, to review so I pulled it out and the kids were happy to gather round and let me read the book aloud. We had the pleasure to review Book 1 “Who Created Everything” by Chris Del Aguila and Justin Cummins. This book covers chapter 1 in Genesis in a fun and child oriented way. Bible explorers welcome to the world of Wizzy Gizmo not just the 1 book we read but a selection of books and Bible products.
What a delightful fresh book to read. The genre of the book is very Christian with a sci-fi twist to it. The extra fantasy punch is in the form of a mad professor (who everyone loves) that has created the Gizmovision. Gixmovision creates a virtual bubble that you can experience any book and in this case it is the book of Genesis chapter 1, creation. The book follows along exactly with the Bible and you and the unique band of kids and strange animal/robots get to tag along and see the Beginning.
New kid in town Eli meets a group of kids Olive, Thomas, and Summer. Being new is hard and Eli is shy but the wonders of meeting Wizzy Gizmo are extraordinary. The many odd objects and inventions pale compared to a robot duck and a dog that is reading the newspaper. Soon your kids (like mine) will feel right at home with this motley crew and ready to experience Genesis chapter 1 first hand- virtually that is.
The story is sweet and clean. It reminded me somewhat of reading books like Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farms or Laura Ingalls Wilder in the simple straight forward writing. The kids liked the book and sat attentively during almost 3 chapter that first time. The total book is 53 pages of reading and some additional material at the end. There are vocabulary words that are highlighted throughout the book. At the end those vocabulary words are written out with definition if like me you like your kids to write out new words. We have a spelling/vocabulary composition book where all new words go and this book made it easy for my littles to look up the words they needed to. There are also question at the end of the book.
If you are looking for a book to reinforce the days of Creation in a fun and quirky way then this book is it. A robot duck and a Spanish speaking dog will make even your boys sit up and take notice. Who Created Everything? is a straight forward Bible based look at creation that is fun for the whole family and a great read aloud!
