Lucado Treasury of Bedtime Prayers By Max and Denalyn Lucado

Lucado Treasury of Bedtime Prayers
By Max and Denalyn Lucado

Illustrator Lisa Alderson has rendered breathtakingly beautiful and tender artwork to enhance the bedtime prayers found in this book.  This book would be worth its weight in gold simply for the outstanding illustrations.  When I saw the pictures and started to read the poetry I literally said, “Oh,” because I was in awe.  This is a gorgeous, gorgeous book that would make the perfect baby shower gift or a gift for a beloved child or grandchild. You truly won’t want to miss out on this book!

Max and Denalyn Lucado have selected the perfect combination of scripture, well-beloved children’s poetry and their own original poems for soothing and comforting bedtime prayer time.  This book could be used as part of the daily bedtime ritual with a young child.

The book begins with a letter to parents explaining the importance of teaching children to pray.  There are paragraphs on forgiveness, hope, God’s care and the power of prayer.  Then the book is divided into sections.  The sections include:  Good Morning, God; God, You are Great; My Family and Friends; In My Play and Through the Day; My Mealtime Payers, God Takes Care of Me, Teach Me, God; Prayers for Special Days; Thank You, God; and Good Night God.


I received this book from the publishers and was not required to write a positive review.
