Graceful and dynamic illustrations of animals, fish, and especially birds sweep the pages of this adaptation of a prayer from the Book of Daniel. The wonders of the earth are beautifully portrayed with Goble's characteristically geometric style, but the choice of text, a bland and repetitive song of praise lacking narrative line or characters, is unlikely to appeal to children.
