Under baobab tree

This is an attractive book with attractive lyrical prose and imaginative images and illustrations. Yet for some reason it does not stick with me nor really excite me. I have an advanced copy and I'm sure the finished piece is even better. I do think that this book would be good for introducing different cultures and churches for others. I don't know that I would run out and buy it, but I wouldn't hesitate to read it at the library or in class.

Thanks to Zondervan for providing an ARC for review.
