Paradise showcases Fiona French's distinctive artwork that combines the flowing organic lines of Art Nouveau with the colorful luminous look of Louis Comfort Tiffany's stained glass.

French returns to perhaps the most compelling text of the many available — the Authorized King James version of the Bible — to bring the Book of Genesis in all of its timeless drama into glowing perspective for young readers.
