Young children just naturally accept the concept of talking to God. If we instruct them in prayer at a young age, they will develop a relationship with God in a very real and personal way that will last a lifetime. A very good resource for introducing prayer is This Little Prayer of Mine by Anthony DeStefano. This book contains a simple rhyming prayer that covers so many facets of a childs world: fear, sadness, joy, happiness, disappointment, obedience, thankfulness, and helping others. Add to that a heart of praise and worship and you have a perfect beginning for life lessons on prayer. Mark Elliotts full color illustrations take this prayer and bring it to life as only a good artist can do. As a parent and former Childrens Church director I can easily see a place for this book at home and in the classroom. The combination of words and pictures create a book that is perfect for bedtime reading with Mom and Dad at the end of the day.
