"The Boy Who Changed the World" - Andy Andrews
"The Boy Who Changed the World" by Andy Andrews
What do Mose Carver, George Washington Carver, Henry Wallace, and Norman Borlaug have in common? They changed the world. Using these men, Andy Andrews teaches children about the Butterfly Effect. Showing them that no matter how small or insignificant they might think they are, they can change the world. Andrews encourages kids to realize God has made them special and has a plan for their lives that will effect countless unseen people. Every choice they make, good or bad, has an effect on the world.
All of my children loved this book. The one yo and three yo enjoyed Philip Hurst's art work. While the five and six yo's enjoyed hearing how each of these men changed the world and influenced each other. A spectacular way to start young children thinking about the choices they make, the plan God has for their lives and the world, and encourage them that they themselves can change the world.
I highly recommend anyone to read this books, whether they have children or not. An important concept for anyone to understand and follow. A spectacular book!
