God’s Brilliantly Big Creation Story. By Dai Woolridge, Bible Society, £6.99 Here’s a good way to introduce young children (aged three to six) to the Genesis creation account. Written with rhythm and rhyme, the book covers the awe-inspiring journey through the days of Creation, and it is full of fun and beautiful imagery, from the vastness of the solar system to the immediacy of small animals. The book would be good for reading aloud to preschool-aged children, and for use with children starting to learn to read. It will help parents looking for a fun, fresh way to introduce children to the Christian faith. GUIDING On the closure of Fishponds Baptist, Guinea Lane earlier in the year, the Guiding Troop there needed a new place to meet. Thanks to St. Mary’s Church, Fishponds, who offered a place for them to carry on meeting. They all meet on a Tuesday evening. If you would like to know more about them please email your enquires to [email protected] and he will pass on your details to the leaders of the group. OVER HEARD! We did healthy eating with our Brownies and asked them what a courgette was - one of them described it as an "angry cucumber.” (Taken from the Guiding website) 25
