Product Description

Who Counts? by Amy-Jill Levine and Sandy Eisenberg Sasso, illustrated by Margaux Meganck, is a creative retelling of three popular parables: the lost sheep, the lost coin, and the prodigal son. As young readers count to help the characters find what's missing, this story teaches that every one of us counts in God's eyes and that everyone should feel counted. The stories are beautifully illustrated with modern-day characters and a diversity of ethnicities so that all children will be able to see themselves in the stories.
