We’re celebrating Children’s Book Week on Faithfully Bookish! I’ll be sharing some of our family’s kids favorites (books or series) from our family’s collection. God Gave Us You was one of the first additions to our children’s library and we still love it! Feel free to return the favor and tell us all about your kid lit favorites in the comments!
About the Book
When a charming polar bear cub climbs into bed one night, she asks her Mama a very important question–one that little “human cubs” often wonder about, too: “Where did I come from?”
As Mama bear tucks her youngest cub under the quilts, she gently, tenderly, and reassuringly communicates the message loving parents everywhere (bears and non-bears alike) want their little ones to hear: “We wanted you very, very much, and we are so very glad because—God gave us you.”
Perfect for bedtime, naptime, storytime or anytime, God Gave Us You provides a valuable opportunity to build children’s self-esteem every day and assure each one that he or she truly is a welcomed, precious, and treasured gift from the Lord.

Why We Love God Gave Us You
We received this book as a gift when our first little cub was just a wee gal and it has been a mainstay through the last decade as our family has grown. Each of our cubs has curled up on my lap to hear the story read countless times and the sweet love a mama bear has for her babies washes over me every time I read it.
This book is so loved that we announced the birth of our second child with the sequel God Gave Us Two! These books beautifully reassure children that they are precious gifts from God and loved very much!
