The Lord Is My Shepherd: The Twenty-Third Psalm

The book had some glue between the last two pages. If it was not for the fact that I am Portugal I would have send it back.

Gennady Spirin's fame is established; and after viewing his 'The Lord is my Shepherd', it can only be hoped that it will continue to grow as one of history's great artists of children's books. The imagination and excellence which he places beside this immortal psalm is likely to produce a sense of awe in any child to whom this book was given. That the publisher decided to print the entire painting, which appears in details throughout the preceding pages, as a foldout is a major printing gift to the eye.Should the reader of reviews have any hesitation in purchasing this book, there really is only one piece of advice from this reviewer: don't wait.

I gave my 5-year-old son this beautifully illustrated book for Christmas, and I have read it to him many times. The text is the King James version of the 23rd Psalm. It is a proud addition to our home library.

My children love this book and I think that they will for a long time. It is a beautiful depiction of the Psalm and I am happy to have it in our collection.

The artwork in this book is really what sells it!! This book is for anyone interested in looking at the verse in a new, engaging way.

I really like Gennady Spirin's work, but this time I was kind of disappointed. The pictures were lovely, but didn't seem to have much relevance to the 23rd Psalm. Pictures were more of a celebration of the glory of god. I think that the 23rd Psalm offers a great opportunity to provide very specific scenes and these were not.
