About This Book

An illustrated collection of prayers for the very young.

Our Review

This charming board book introduces toddlers to the gentle practice of daily prayer through simple, rhyming verses that cover moments like waking up, mealtimes, and bedtime. The illustrations are soft and engaging, featuring diverse children in familiar, comforting scenes that make the concept of talking to God feel natural and accessible for the youngest readers. Each prayer is brief and uses concrete, age-appropriate language that one- to three-year-olds can easily understand and begin to mimic, fostering early spiritual development.

What sets this collection apart is its focus on the child's own perspective, turning everyday routines into opportunities for gratitude and connection. Parents seeking to establish a foundation of faith will find this an invaluable tool for creating quiet, reflective moments with their little ones, making it a heartfelt addition to any nursery bookshelf that nurtures a child's first conversations with the divine.
