Once upon a time there was no time. There was no earth, or sky, or sea. There was only darkness and the waters of the deep and a father and son who watched over them.
So begins this awe-inspiring retelling of the creation story. In At Break of Day, God the Father and God the Son are artists who delight in their creation.
Nikki Grimes's poetic text celebrates the wonders of the universe and its creatures and the loving collaborative effort that brings it into existence. Paul Morin's bold, textured paintings capture the intense excitement of a universe called into being out of nothingness and powerfully convey the raw splendor of the new creation.
