Book gem

I discovered this book at the library and found it to be such a gem, that I am now going to buy it. These prayers range from a simple blessing over food to classic prayers by the saints and many "meatier" prayers, making this a children's prayer book that could carry through to young adulthood. I also found the illustrations to be lovely, simple and appealing to a child without being sickly sweet.

An enchanting presentation of prayer for children.

This unique collection of Christian prayers, featuring contributions ranging from Whittier and Emerson to Bonar and Coverdale, is interspersed with scripture and illustrated with joyous originality. Although it is recommended for the younger set, picture book lovers of all ages will want this one for their shelves.
