A computer-animated rendering of the best-selling children's book written by Sandy Eisenberg Stasso, and featuring gentle, culturally diverse illustrations by Phoebe Stone, In God's Name is built around the premise that when God created the world everything was given a name...but no one knew what to call God. Each person had a different name--Source of Life, Maker of Peace, Shepherd, Comforter, My Rock--and each thought his or her name was the right one. One day, all the people gathered together by a lake--"God's Mirror"--and when they looked into the water they saw that all the names were good and everyone listened, even God. A catchy song, "We're All the Same When We Come Together in God's Name," runs over the closing credits, reinforcing the message and providing a lively finale to a sweetly interpreted story. Recommended. Aud: K, E, P. (J. Reed)
