Garden of Peace: How Does Your Garden Grow?

By Norma Jean Ridley

"What if your thoughts grew like a garden? Would you plant worry... or peace?"

In Garden of Peace: How Does Your Garden Grow?, young readers will follow the tender and thought-filled journey of Penny, a curious little girl navigating her emotions, choices, and faith-all through the help of her wise and whimsical neighbor, Miss Violet. When Penny receives a precious locket from her late Gramma, she finds a tiny scroll inside with a message that seems to change every time her heart does. As she tends to her thoughts like soil and seeds, Penny begins to discover the beauty of Philippians 4:8 (KJV) in action.

This Christian children's chapter book gently teaches how to think on things that are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, and of good report, using the delightful metaphor of a garden to help kids understand the power of their thoughts and the peace that comes from walking with God. Perfect for read-aloud bedtime stories, Sunday school lessons, or independent reading for ages 6-10, Garden of Peace is ideal for families, homeschoolers, and churches looking to nurture biblical values in a relatable, story-driven way.

Featuring adorable pencil-style illustrations, character-building themes, and Scripture woven into each chapter, this book will leave little ones laughing, learning, and longing to grow a garden of peace in their own hearts. Penny's relatable struggles, silly friends, and simple discoveries will captivate your child's imagination while pointing them gently toward the Lord.
