“This book is a perfect gift to spawn conversations about God. The story is delightful and the ideas to do at the end of the book with your young people are spot on for growing loving images of God.”
“Such a special book! What I’ve been looking for without knowing what I was looking for.”
A charming and inspiring book that will help children and their parents begin to understand the beauty and mystery of God, through artful words and expressive art.
— James Martin, S.J., New York Times bestselling author
Emma sees without complication that God is light, warmth, and love, and through her drawings she encourages her friends to explore their understanding of God and faith. A beautiful story!
— Susanna Leonard Hill, award-winning author of The Moon's First Friends
God is always working. During at trip to the grocery store, I overheard two young kids talking as a parent was shopping nearby. One said to the other, “My mother said you shouldn’t talk about God in school because it makes people feel uncomfortable.” I couldn’t believe my ears. So, I began to pray and ask God how we might get more people talking about God. A few weeks later, I began to draft the story, “Drawing God.”
My hope is through encountering Emma and her contagious faith, this story will inspire more people to think and talk about how and where they see God.
Please know that I am with you on your drawing God journey.
In friendship,
