God Made the Ocean (Collins)
Who made the ocean and all the creatures in it? God did! Author and illustrator Sarah Jean Collins uses winsome rhymes and colorful geometric illustrations to teach children fun facts about sea life while also reminding them that, as much as God loves the whales and jellyfish, he loves his people even more.
