Zoe's Time to Shine: When You Want to Hide

By Edward T. Welch

Book Overview

Zoe's Time to Shine is a warm, beautifully illustrated story that helps young children face shame and embarrassment by remembering that Jesus is near and they do not need to hide.

Zoe Mouse loves to sing, but when she auditions for the school musical and does not get the role she expected, she feels exposed and humiliated. Wanting to disappear, she hides away until Papa gently helps her see that Jesus is with her in her shame and will give her courage to return. As Zoe learns to trust his love and help, children are shown that they can face hard moments without hiding from others.

Part of the Good News for Little Hearts series for ages 4-7, this relatable story offers gospel-centered help for one of the most common struggles young children face. Edited by Edward T. Welch and shaped by CCEF's model of hope and help, Zoe's Time to Shine also includes a parent resource page and tear-out Bible verses to support conversations about embarrassment, identity, and depending on Jesus in everyday life.
