Benny's Angel, A God's Secret Garden Adventure, Book review And Giveaway


Book description:

Who stole the flowers in God’s Secret Garden?

When Ella Eagle discovers that the flowers in God’s Secret Garden have wilted, she alerts Mayor Benny Bunny. The main suspect in the case is evil Count Slime, who is jealous of the joy the animals have in the garden. Mayor Benny calls in Oliver Owl, the captain of the Owl Force Wisdom Watchers, but the owls have not seen Count Slime during their patrols of the garden. Mayor Benny suggests the animals pray for an answer. God hears their prayer and sends Marietta the angel to help them solve the mystery.
This delightful tale uses animals, nature, and a visit from an angel to teach children the importance of prayer and the value of trusting God.

My review:

Children books are wonderful to read no matter the age. I am quite certain most parents and grandparents find a delight in reading and rediscovering the simplicity with which they saw the whole world!
Laura Allen Nonemaker appears to be a wonderful story teller and Benny's Angel was written for 'little hearts everywhere!'


Using animals, nature and a visit of an Angel, the author uses her talent to show to children the wonders of God's world! You will find yourself stepping into a world of beauty as only God could create and you are certain to share a very special moment in the life of wee ones whilst teaching them to trust into the Lord!
Benny's Angel is a touching story you will enjoy reading often with your loved ones and the perfect gift to add to that special stocking this Christmas Season!

I give it 5 stars!

About the author:


'Laura’s desire to write took root as a child in Bermuda, when a favorite teacher at Mt. St. Agnes Academy published one of her essays in the local newspaper. Her aspiration sprouted again in Louisville, Kentucky during the 1980s, when she conceived the idea for TecNotes, a newsletter she wrote and edited for TubeTec Inc. During this period, she also studied commercial art at Jefferson Community College. Since then, Laura has written in a variety of genres and her work has appeared in Essence Treasury: Celebrating the Season, Alive! and Kentucky Monthly Magazine.

The publication of Benny’s Angel is the realization of a dream. It is the first book in the God’s Secret Garden Adventure Series. This colorful storybook uses delightful animal characters to convey to little hearts the importance of prayer and the value of trusting God.'
