You are special by Max Lucado – a book review
This beautifully illustrated story centres on Punchinello who is a wemmick or rather, a wooden person. Punchinello falls short of the other wemmicks’ ideal of a perfect wooden person and soon he starts to believe that he is worthless. However, after meeting Eli, his creator, Punchinello discovers that Eli cares for him regardless of the opinions of the other wemmicks and that comments made by others don’t matter. While this book doesn’t mention God directly, the story is a lovely allegory for God’s love and provides a wonderful opportunity to affirm your child’s worth.
