What Do I Do With Worry
$12.99Add to cartYoung Willow is a worrier. She’s just moved to a new neighborhood, and with it comes a new lineup of questions and doubts. What if there are tornadoes here? What if I trip getting on the bus? What if my dad loses his new job? What if a star falls out of the sky and lands on my dog?
Sometimes silly but always real, Willow’s worries keep her from enjoying her new home, from resting well, and from working with classmates. Thankfully, she has wise parents and some new friends to help her along and to teach her the biblical way to deal with her emotions.
Today’s world can be overwhelming to children, who are experiencing worry and anxiety at younger ages and unprecedented levels. Dr. Josh and Christi Straub-authors, leaders, and family advocates-are passionate about giving parents knowledge and resources to help their children navigate these emotions. The couple offered their wisdom and relevance in their first picture book, What Am I Feeling? and they continue to do so in this follow-up board book, matching a fun story with practical lessons and memorable mantras to help kids not only face down their worry today but as they grow into tomorrow as well.

Youre More Than A Sprout
$14.99Add to cart“When I didn’t think I was growing at all, t he Master was strengthening me to grow tall.
In this lyrical story, a young bamboo seed loves his time floating through the air, on his way to his new life . . . until he slams to the ground and finds himself stuck in the soil for a long, long time. He pouts and grumbles as the other seeds grow and become strong plants. When the bamboo sprout finally starts to stretch toward the sky, a panda arrives to nibble his stalks and dash his hopes once again.
But the wise moon offers words of comfort, assuring the bamboo sprout that the Master is at work in his life, and one day the little sprout will become part of all the wonderful things he saw below on his first journey . . . more than he could ever imagine.
Through this rich story, children can find encouragement during seasons of waiting, or times of transition, or while working hard to reach a still faraway goal. Just as the Master did for the bamboo sprout, God is molding young readers to fit His purpose for their lives too.

Dream Big My Precious One

In Dream Big, My Precious One, a narrator wonders what a young child will enjoy as he or she grows up–sports, art, music? The narrator imagines all of the incredible things the child could become, from “a doctor or zoologist, a nurse or archaeologist” all the way to “a preacher sharing God’s good news, a captain on a sailing cruise, a vet to cure sick kangaroos!” Upbeat and playful, this book will inspire children to passionately pursue their dreams, knowing that God will be with them every step of the way.
