Celebrate the beauty of life and the miracle of motherhood with Speckled Calf! Richly and beautifully illustrated, this tender story will delight readers of all ages. Award-winning poet, author, and illustrator Cheryl Sasai Ellicott has created a charming picture book about a speckled calf trotting along in the footsteps of her mother, "the giver of sweet cream and comfort." If you've ever spent time around cows, you'll recognize that the feeling of peace you sense in their presence is gently woven into this story. These calm, contented creatures are not worried about tomorrow nor ashamed of yesterday, and they don't struggle with identity issues. Satisfied with who she is and why she's here, Speckled Calf is free to enjoy the blessings and splendor of life! "And God saw every thing He had made. And, behold, it was very good." Genesis 1:31 "Jesus created all things, everything in heaven and on earth, everything seen and unseen ... All things were created by God's Son. Everything was made for Him." Colossians 1:16
