"Little Prayers for Ordinary Days is an invitation from cover to cover. Each prayer invites children to step into their everyday life with God, which includes moments of gladness and sadness. We are reminded through clever verse and reflective images that all childhood experiences are ripe for connection with God. Children who begin with these prayers will not end with them but will use them as steppingstones to their ongoing conversational relationship with God. I recommend this book for all who need a reminder that God is with them throughout their ordinary days."

"Little Prayers for Ordinary Days is an absolute gift of color and language and wonder. This book is full of treasures. There are precious prayers to pray with your children, but these prayers also did such good for my own adult heart. Do not miss the gift that is this book. It will be a blessing to any family and home."
