Before I was me /
Fraser, Frank,
Before I was me / written and illustrated by Frank Fraser. - 1 volume of unnumbered pages : color illustrations ; 26 cm
Before I was me, just before I was born, I asked God, "Who will I become?" "Oh, my little one," He replied, "I have great plans for you!I have chosen you to be a very important person whom I will always love." Thus begins a charming odyssey of self-discovery, as, in conversation with God, the child imagines himself as: an astronaut going off to work each morning in a rocket, stopping halfway to Mars for milk and cookies; a baker baking yummy treats everyone wants; a farmer growing food for hungry people of all nations around the world; a doctor healing giraffes and rabbits, and, yes, people, too; a teacher helping boys and bears and gophers and girls become the best they can be (while giving hugs to the downcast!); a parent making the lives of children happy and safe; and finally, a child, important simply for who he is and whom God will always love!
