Illustrated by
Hiroe Nakata.
This well-designed book offers young readers both an example of simple prayer and an opportunity for deeper contemplation. On each left-hand page, a prayer of gratitude to God--"Thank you for good things to eat"--appears in a giant font, followed by a related request--"Help me remember those who are hungry"--in smaller typeface. The text is paired with watercolors featuring joyful kids at play.
