“The Lord’s Prayer – Words of Hope and Happiness” was sent to me from Zonderkidz – a division of Zondervan Publishing – free of charge, in exchange for my honest review of it.

“The Lord’s Prayer” is a children’s fiction board book. I love board books because tiny children can enjoy them without the fear of them tearing them to shreds.  This storybook was written by Rick Warren, the well-known pastor of Saddleback Church.  He has also written many adult non-fiction books, like “The Purpose-Driven Life”, and also Bible studies.  The darling illustrations were done by Richard Jesse Watson.

In this book, Pastor Warren explains each line of the Lord’s Prayer so that a child can understand it…in only one or two sentences.  Each section also includes a one sentence “Thank You” prayer.

I’d recommend this to any child.  I’d also recommend it to teachers, librarians, parents, grandparents, and anyone else who reads to children.
