This is a very lovely book about all the ways to pray. It has the beautiful message that there is no one way to pray, and everyone prays differently.

The illustrations were perfect; I loved the use of blank space and the vibrant images. Overall it was a wonderful book, a great way to introduce children to praying.

There's a page at the end with a note to parents, and a couple prayers that the author uses. I thought this was a nice touch.

This book is lovely! It's a must-own and it's perfect for gift-giving. The heartfelt message about prayer provides wonderful examples for both kids and parents, sparking meaningful discussions and fostering a closer connection with God. Plus, the illustrations are delightful! I can't recommend this book highly enough. I will purchase a copy for me and one for each of my grandchildren. I received a complimentary e-copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. Thank you to Zonderkidz-Books, Zonderkidz, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this lovely book. 🫶

A truly wonderful book. I love this exploration and discovery of prayer. It is wonderful for children as it shows you can bring anything/everything to God even silence. It is also a good reminder for adults as we overcomplicate prayer and make "rules" of what is and isn't acceptable in prayer. Darling illustrations and fun to read, I highly recommend this book.

This book is so sweet! Me and my daughter loved reading it together! I love that in this book Abby asks her moms all kinds of questions and it got my daughter asking more questions as well. I will definitely be recommending this books to other people that I know. I loved the art and pictures in the book. I love when I am find a good children’s book that talks about praying and what it means to pray and that it doesn’t matter how you pray just that you spend that time with God. This is something that we try to teach our children. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to read this book.

This is a beautiful story about Abby who learns all the ways she can talk and pray to God. It shares that you can question, thank or be silent when we talk to Him and he loves it all. I think this is a great way for children who are still just learning about their faith to learn more about praying in a very age appropriate way!

What a sweet picture book teaching children that prayer is talking to God, and we can talk to Him about anything. My 4 year old loved looking at the pictures as I read too. I highly recommend this one.
Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the advanced copy of this book. All thoughts are my own.

Very positive message to a child about God and that there is no right way to pray. The story starts by showing when/where a child can pray and make a habit out of it, but it doesn't need to be done a certain way. I really enjoyed the fact that the girl didn't ask anything from God, just simply wanted to share her day with him. I would recommend this book to any Christian family who wants to pass the message about praying to their children.

Thank you to NetGalley and Zonderkidz-Books for the advanced reader copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

My four kids and I have read this book over and over again! Each parent should own this book and have it in their home library. It is full of beautiful words and just such importance of God to kids.

This was such a sweet book with very cute illustrations. It does a great job of making prayer seem accessible to children and showing that you can talk to God about anything. As a new mom, one part actually made me tear up - when you read it you'll know which part. I look forward to reading this book to my daughter.

What a beautiful book about curiosity and exploration in learning how to pray. I love how simple it is and yet it is a profound way for children (or adults) to learn how to talk to and listen to God.

Thanks to Zonderkidz for the gifted book. All opinions are my own.

I really enjoyed this books. The illustrations were well drawn and cute. The writing was so beautiful. It articulated well what I tell my children. It was sweet to read them something that was so powerful. Them hearing it again and again from me and then reading a book about the same thing I hope just solidified that they can talk to God about anything. I really liked the question what do I do when I don’t have anything to say and the mom told her she could just sit with God. It was so sweet. I will continue to share this book with my kids

A sweet book of a family that prayed together. However, their daughter Abby wanted to know if should pray by herself. Her parents encouraged her that she could. Praying by herself, she had other questions about praying. A significant teaching moment was prayer is listening not just talking. Prayer has a way of making us thankful and closer to God.

A resource for all Christian families.

A special thank you to ZonderKidz Books and Netgalley for the ARC and the opportunity to post an honest review.

This book is WONDERFUL! It is one to purchase for the library, but would also be great to keep a copy at home, gift to friends, give at baby showers, etc. Such a wonderful message on praying, gives great examples for kids and parents, encourages thought and daily conversation with God, and spreads love for our Creator. Also, the illustrations are precious! I can't recommend this book enough. I will be sharing with my family for sure!
