Summary: A Beautiful Book about Self-Sacrifice
Review: The 'Little Rose of Sharon' is a lovely, poignant story about a rose who grew in a field of other flowers and trees. Nearby the rose was a fig tree where a family of doves lived. It was a time of when God's creation was of pure innocence and glory. The rose admired her beauty and hope the Creator loved her lovely red petals and sweet fragrance. The Creator smiled on the little flower. One day a terrible storm came. The little rose swayed in the wind, but she survived. But the little dove egg that was in the fig tree fell to the ground by the rose. Night came and it was cold. The rose thinking that if the baby dove was unprotected it would die. So the lovely rose shed it's beautiful red petals over the baby dove egg to keep it warm from the cold night. The parents of the baby dove saw the movement underneath the red petals and out came their newborn. The little rose was happy she did a wonderful thing. The Creator saw what the Little Rose of Sharon done and told her, "My Son will one day do the same for all mankind. He will give of Himself and sacrifice His love just as you have done." A wonderful story about the great lesson of love and self-sacrifice that surely will be appreciated by all ages alike. The illustrations are beautifully painted in a pastel-type renderings. Exquisite!

Review: Tim Jonke is also the illustrator of "A Tale of Three Trees."

Please read my comments concerning that book,
titled, "Story Good. Illustrations Bad."

I feel that the subject matter here is too sacred to write
about. Too sacred to even dare try.

I bought this book, read it, and wish I hadn't.

NEVER GIVE A CHILDREN'S BOOK AS A GIFT TO
SOMEONE BEFORE READING IT CAREFULLY
YOURSELF.

While that may sound like common sense, sometimes
people don't stop to think.
