I love Suzy's Zoo characters - to have them together with beautiful simple prayers for children is wonderful. I have my own copy and gave one to my 2 year old grandson. "Thank You, Lord, for making me special and for loving me just the way I am." That's a prayer we all need.
The sweetest prayer book I have seen yet...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
If you are in search of a very sweet, child-friendly prayer book with gentle language and prayers for all the things children contemplate, this is the one. My daughter has MANY prayer books and after buying this for her birthday, it has fast become a favorite for both of us. First, if you are not familiar with the Suzy's Zoo line, these illustrations are some of the sweetest, most engaging characters ever created. Children readily respond to them (as well as adults!) and you'll find plenty of appealing, soft, and humorous images in this little book. Apart from the truly enjoyable pictures, the prayers themselves are what spoke to me most. They are written in a children's language in a way that reaches them but does not condescend. Important and meaningful items are beautifully included; for instance, you will find little prayers about mommy and daddy, friends, keep me safe when I play outside, when I'm sad, food, not to be afraid when scared, seasons, toys, thank you for Jesus, for children who don't have as much, school, giving thanks....and more! Just about every prayer topic is on a two page layout that includes the main prayer and then several additional quotes or poems appropriate for all kids. My daughter is only one year old, and she is captivated by this book that I am sure will stay a favorite as she grows older and grasps even more of the meaning. It is a hardcover book with regular paper pages, in case you need to know for little hands. We found this book a truly special addition to our little one's library. Hope you enjoy too!
