The World Is Awake, a celebration of everyday blessings, written by Emmy Award winner and ABC News correspondent Linsey Davis with Joseph Bottum, is a lyrical, rhyming story for young children intended to make them feel safe and joyful, cradled in the hands of God. Paired with bright and engaging illustrations by Lucy Fleming, this book inspires children to be thankful for all of God’s blessings that surround us in our daily lives. From the nature in our own backyard to the animals at the zoo, The World is Awake is a celebration of God’s wonderful world.

The world is awake

Almost daily, my three-year-old son takes my hand and he leads me into the world around him with fresh eyes, and it serves as a subtle reminder of all the reasons to rejoice and anticipate each new day.

It is through the inspiration of my son that I am thrilled to tell you about a new children’s book that I’ve written, The World is Awake — a whimsical look at all that is extraordinary in an ordinary day. It is an exploration of the splendor and majesty of God’s blessings all around us through the lens of young people.

Testimonials & Customer Reviews

You can see, in these pages, Linsey Davis’s vision of a world alive with God’s grace, and how that vision found a perfect expression in the verses that the poet Joseph Bottum helped her craft. A wonderful Mere Christianity-like meeting of Davis’s Protestantism and Bottum’s Catholicism to produce something like Gerard Manley Hopkins for very young children

Christina B., Amazon Review

Positively one of the sweetest books I’ve read in years! The artwork is beautiful and it is faith based, which is so refreshing these days! Buy it! You will be so happy to read it to all the children in your life!

Jan S., Amazon Review

I purchased this book for my four year old grandson after seeing it featured on GMA. He loves it and all the pictures in it! While he is not a black or brown baby he didn’t care and thought nothing of the racial differences. I hope Linsey writes more books!
