Rezensionen
An enjoyably dense book - I got through it since it was read to me. It was an eye opener about Bonhoeffer's formative theology, AND - in an entirely different vein, the attempts by many in Germany to get rid of Hitler well before the rest of the world understood how dangerous he was. Bonhoeffer's short life offered enough details for two books. Both are completed in this work by Metaxas.
Great life story. Just didn't care for the writing style.

I've often said that I cannot draw a straight line with a ruler, and therefore when I see such lush illustrations, I am in awe.
As the title notes, this is a story of adult animals, softly repeating the same phrase in order to bring about sleep.
As with all this artist's books, the illustations carry the story.
