Every day the small wooden people called Wemmicks do the same thing: stick either gold stars or grey dots on one another. The pretty ones - and talented ones always get stars. Those who can do little or who have chipped paint, get ugly grey dots, just like Punchinello.

The world tells children, 'You're special if you have the brains, the looks, the talent.' God tells them, 'You're special just because. No qualifications necessary.' Only one of those messages will find its place in their hearts. That's why every child you know needs to hear this one, reassuring truth: 'You Are Precious in His Sight.' Max Lucado's delightful, fully illustrated children's tale will help you say it again and again, with love.
