A prayer for life’s new beginnings

A new school, neighborhood, team, or year can bring uncertainty, and this Christian picture book gives that experience a prayerful frame. Mitali Perkins’s text invites children to turn to God during times of change, emphasizing the book’s central reassurance that Jesus is with them and understands what it is like to face something new. Its subject is everyday transitions, approached through both a story and a prayer children can lift to God.

  • Children encountering a new school, neighborhood, team, or year
  • Families seeking a Christian story and prayer about change
