The World that God Made is a children's book by Janice Godfrey (although some editions give the author as Kathleen Bostrom), with art by Peter Adderley, published in 1997. It is available at the Internet Archive.
This is a beautifully illustrated book with both full-page illustrations and also border art that features all kinds of wonders of creation. I'm reading the book at the Internet Archive, so I cannot experience the lift-the-flap part of the book, but I've ordered a copy so that I can find out just how that works.
Unlike many other "Jack" adaptations, this one revels in the longer lines and it builds a substantial amount of text by the time this short book is finished:
The chain follows the pattern of creation in Genesis, starting with light, then earth and sea, then plants, then sun and moon, then fish and birds, then animals, and finally people.
Here's an example of one of the two-page spreads; lovely!
