Here I Am is a board book that sets the stage for the young child to understand the sacramentality of the body and the reality of our embodiment in a culture of confusion about our bodies and what they mean.
Appealing to childlike wonder and joy, Here I Am draws young readers deeper into the mystery of the Incarnation.
Through engaging words and charming illustrations, children can begin to see their bodies as gifts that mirror the gift of Christ's own body.
But why does this book come in two different versions?
Here I Am counteracts a false anthropology that is predominant in contemporary understandings of gender, which roots girl-ness and boy-ness in feelings, perceptions, and stereotypes rather than the sex of the body.
Human personhood is expressed in two distinct modes: male and female. Having two separate versions for boys and girls shows, not just tells, that being a boy or a girl is fundamentally about the body.
