Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "PreS-Gr. 1. This child-friendly book meets the young reader at the intersection of faith and understanding. Taking children through the day, the prayers offered are simple ones. In the morning, the day is new, help me in the things I do ; night prayers are for safety during the night. Original prayers and traditional prayers are interspersed, and the 120 offerings are divided into such topics as Around the Year, People I Love, and Special Days. Brightly colored graphic paper-cuts feature a multicultural cast of children engaged in appealing activities--everything from taking care of pets to sailing boats on the water. Well thought out and handsomely designed. --Ilene Cooper Copyright 2003 Booklist"
