It is often difficult to describe beauty or even justify attempts to experience something beautiful. Yet if artistsmdash;whether painters or poets; actors or musicians; architects or sculptorsmdash;teach us anything; it is that the pursuit of beauty is a common feature among all humanity. As Cecilia Gonzaacute;lez-Andrieu contends; these varied experiences with artistic beauty are embedded with revelatory and prophetic power that not only affects a single individual but allows for communal formation. Named one ofAmerica magazinersquo;s most promising young theologians; Gonzaacute;lez-Andrieu seeks to engage art in order to reveal its religious significance. Bridge to Wonder proposes a method of theological aesthetics allowing readers to mine the depths of creative beauty to discover variegated theological truths that enable greater communion with each other and the One source of all that is beautiful.

There are about 200 books in this ebook series that are offered in the kindle store for either free or for .99cent;. You cant really go wrong with the books offered for free. There is a variety of subjects covered and most of the books follow about the same format. You can take a peek inside the books by clicking "Look Inside" and this is pretty much what you get in each book.I like this particular book. The format for this book is a little different than most of the Baby Professor books in this series which usually have a picture with a paragraph and facts on one page. Then the next page is just a photo. It would be nice if they had another paragraph on that page too. This Blue Animal book is a little different because it has a picture of a blue animal on each page (very cool pictures btw) and on each page it has a fun fact about each animal in one or two sentences. Overall; I do love theses books although it would be nice if the books went into more detail but they are very basic books that I hope will get my kids interested in finding more about each subject.I plan on keeping these books on my iPad for down time for my kids when they get bored waiting different places like the doctors office or practice for a sibling. I sometimes watch a friends 3 year old daughter and she likes to look through the pictures on my phone. I plan on showing her these books to keep her entertained. I think she will love them.***** I received this ebook for free for my honest review. ******0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great way to learn about colorful; new creatures!!! A+By KAC ReviewsAnother great read from Baby Professor! I have several of the featured color animal e-books at they have all been well received in our household.In this book you will find a variety of blue sea life; birds and insects. On each page you will see an up-close; real life picture along with some short facts about each creature. The pictures are of stunning quality; vivid color and up close detailed images. My 4 year old loved this book as it contained creatures he had never seen before. These e-books are a great way to learn about new interesting animals that you will not see anywhere else! I had no idea there was a blue slug!!! I think the blue edition is my favorite one yet! All the creatures were new to me! This is a great read for all ages and something your children will definitely enjoy! I highly recommend getting them all!I received this book for free in exchange for my honest review. I hope you found it helpful!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. This is an excellent ebook for kidsBy rkreviewerThis is an excellent ebook for kids! As a teacher of elementary students; I would love to incorporate this ebook into a small group activity where I present a main idea or topic to the whole class and then they break up in small groups and discover more material on their own. My mind was continuously racing as I read through this book thinking of different projects I could make on this topic. It is the perfect age group to let them use a kindle to explore and what a better way to do so than with this ebook! I will totally let other teachers know of this opportunity and will keep this seller in mind with other ebooks available. I received this product free for reviewing purposes; however my opinions are all my own.
