When You Were Only A Prayer is a poetic testimony of a mother's prayer to have a baby, and our Heavenly Father's love to answer. The words and pictures show the special bond between a mother and child. The illustrations of animal mothers and babies are included to promote conversations with children about the bond in nature as well. The text has an emphasis on rhyming words.
