Henry's Big Mistake: When You Feel Guilty

By Lauren Whitman

Henry's Big Mistake is a warm, beautifully illustrated story that helps young children understand guilt and learn how confession and forgiveness bring real peace.

When Henry Hedgehog cruelly teases his sister Halle about her new braces, he is left with a heavy feeling he cannot shake. Trying to simply be nicer does not solve the problem, and children see alongside Henry that guilt does not go away by covering up sin or trying harder. Instead, he learns that God calls us to confess our wrongs, seek forgiveness, and make things right with the people we have hurt.

Part of the Good News for Little Hearts series, this relatable story offers grace-based, biblical help for children ages four to seven as they learn what to do when they feel guilty. Edited by Lauren Whitman and shaped by CCEF's model of hope and help, the book also includes a parent resource section and tear-out Back Pocket Bible Verses, equipping families to have meaningful conversations about sin, repentance, forgiveness, and living by faith in everyday life.
