Review:

Ten prayers are included in this charming board book for young children. The thick pages, gilt-edged to add a special brilliance, are filled with quaint pictures--rabbits and mice dressed in delicate frocks, wrapped in quilts, sipping tea, even pitching woo under a moon--that establish a warm mood that mirrors the feeling of poetry. These sentimental pictures also compensate for the language of some selections, which the youngest listeners may not find easy to understand. Each double-page spread has a border of pink roses adding sweetness to the moments captured by the art and words. An appealing book for children and adults who want to foster the faith and hopes of their children.

Best-selling greeting-card artist Susan Wheeler's warmhearted watercolors of the furry inhabitants of Holly Pond Hill provide a lovely setting for this board-book collection of beloved prayers for children. The selections in this charming book have been carefully chosen and edited for very young children and include excerpts from the Bible, spiritual poetry by acclaimed writers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Christina Rossetti, as well as time-honored traditional prayers. Accompanying the prayers are Susan Wheeler's gentle images of woodland creatures. This delightful treasure of a book--with its heartwarming artwork and design, special padded casebound cover, and gilded gold edges--makes a thoughtful and meaningful present for Easter, First Communions, birthdays, or any special day.
