The moment my 2 yr. old daughter saw the book, she never let go. Every night, we both cuddle up & look at the very colorful pictures with cutouts on each page. I make up stories on each page & also read to her the simple prayers that she could learn as she grows. Since the pages are made of hard board, they are perfect for tiny, experimenting hands which turn each page awkwardly with too much excitement. Furthermore, the lock at the side makes it easier for those tiny hands to carry. No more flapping pages! These little inquisitive kids will not only learn to read but also harness their motors/skills by opening/closing the lock. Another big plus is the handle which allows the children to hold/carry the book very conveninently wherever, whenever. I highly recommend this book to all your toddlers!

Our 7 month old granddaughter LOVES this book. The illustrations are stimulating--so much to look at on each page. And the sweet prayers are something she can learn as she gets older. This is a board book ( with handle, too!) and Olivia loves turning the pages herself!

I have given this book to many babies on the day of their Baptism. The babies love to look at the pictures, and parents rave over the cute book. As kids get older, its a great take-along to church. They love that they can carry it themselves with the handle!

My daughter, Zoe is 21 months old & we both loved this book. She is learning to pray & the short, often rhyming words make prays easy to remember. But most of all the vibrant illustrations captivate the toddler's interest. This was a great buy!

The pictures are quite endearing and detailed with lots of things to point out and talk about. The little latch is a hit. We must operate it at every page!

I'm glad I got this book for my 16 month old girl. Along with 6 other children's books that I purchased from Amazon, this book arrived in perfect condition. I just love that it has a handle and clamp that my baby finds interesting - and cutouts within the book. The illustrations are nice and colorful, and my baby loves pointing to the different things she sees, be it a dog, cat, ball or children. Most of all, the prayers are short and simple, and easy to learn. I like that it has different types of prayers for different topics or times of day (i.e. Wake Up Prayer, Mealtime Prayer, Playtime Prayer, My Friends, The Lord's Prayer - paraphrased, Thank You God, Anytime Prayer, Evening Prayer). I also like the action suggestions for some of the prayers (i.e. Wake Up Prayer - Pretend to wake up. Yawn and stretch your arms -- I do this and my baby loves pretending to yawn with me; God's Little Child - a prayer that describes body parts such as "Two little eyes to look to God; Two little ears to hear His word..." - Can you point to your eyes, ears, feet, lips, hands, and heart?). This is definitely a good buy, and would make a good gift. Here are some excerpts from the book:

Thank You, God
For raindrops and rainbows,
For animals and fun,
For trees and flowers,
For breezes and sun.
*What is your favorite thing God has made?

Mealtime Prayer
Thank you for the world so sweet,
Thank you for the food we eat.
*What do you like to eat for breakfast?

Quiet-Time Prayer
Thank you for sunsets, God!
They are your very special way
To say goodbye to every day.

This board book is really cute for babies. I love the little rubberized carrying handle and the rubberized clasp to keep the book closed. I bought it as a baptism gift.

Great book! Lots of details in the pictures that my kids love. This is our second book. We wore out the first one my kids loved it so much.

I was very satisfied with this product purchase. I sent it as a gift to a friend and it arrived within a week. Although I haven't seen the condition of the book I assume it was new as advertised. I would buy from this person again.

I bought this book when my son was 3 months old and he still loves it!!!
