My children are enthralled with rhyme. I think most children are. The Everywhere God by Bob Nelson and edited by Cricket Nelson Hater employs the joy children find in rhyme and word play to impress upon the hearts and minds of the children that God is everywhere, all the time, and that He Loves Them.
I love simple children’s books and illustrations that help my girls learn and remember the precious gift that we are given through God’s love. In The Everywhere God I see such a joy in God’s love that I just want to share it! The rhymes bring out spontaneous laughter and sighs of understanding.
The poem shows the love of God whether a child is happy and joyous, exploring the world, or feeling somewhat blue. Covering all aspects of our lives in ways children can grasp, this book is a work of art. The illustrations by Robin Tillman are bright, cheerful, and do a wonderful job of enhancing the poetry.
I feel so blessed that Cricket Nelson Hater chose to share this wonderful poem with the world. Written by Bob Nelson for his granddaughter, we see his believe in the unending love of God and his great desire for others, especially his granddaughter, to see it, too. With surprising child-like faith, this joyous book brings God’s love into the heart, mind, and life of children of all ages.
This is a book that I am delighted to have in our home.
At Home.

The Everywhere God is a book about hope for children of all ages. Written for his young granddaughter during a particularly difficult time, the late Pastor Bob Nelson wanted to be sure she knew God was with her no matter what else was happening. Despite people and circumstances, his message is clear, God never leaves or forgets about us and His love never ends. Upon it’s completion, he knew it was something special and wanted to make it a children’s book. Unfortunately, time passed and things never fell into place for his vision to come to life. He passed away in 2008 before he could see it happen.
More than 20 years after it’s original writing, Bob Nelson’s daughter remembered this treasured poem and like her father, felt it needed to be shared with the world. For many years she kept this special story in the back of her heart and always dreamed of making his vision for a children’s book a reality.
