After the Beginning
After the Beginning opens with the Divine Family (God, Goddess, and all the angels) celebrating the completion of the universe – sun, moons, and eight perfect planets, with no mistakes at all. But when Little Angel suggests that there could be one more planet, one where “things aren’t the same all the time,” things begin to unravel… In this enchanting tale, the sacredness of Earth, the ecological crisis, and children’s leadership are connected in a way that will inspire children and adults alike. Margaret Kyle’s vibrant illustrations create a sense of awe that will move and delight readers of all ages.
