Our Father in Heaven, Hallowed by your name. . . The beloved words of The Lord's Prayer serve as the text for this remarkable book, in which Tim Ladwig illustrates how the words of this ancient prayer... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This very beautiful book, so lovingly illustrated, was just perfect for our Vacation Church School program, but it would also be a wonderful book for families. There is great interest in following what is going on in each picture and matching the actions of the little girl and her father to the words of the prayer, as together they repair a rickety old fence and clean the front yard of an elderly neighbour. This book is subtle, elegant, rich, and delightful.

The Lord's Prayer is an important part of everyday life. The story that goes along with this well-known prayer is realistic and heartwarming. It shows us how we can take this prayer and actually put it to use in our lives. Great book, my little one (3 yrs) loves it.
Gorgeous

Beautifully illustrated, this rendition of the Lord's Prayer gives concrete and thoughtful modern interpretative images to a timeless prayer. The theme is one of loving, caring and giving as the prayer unfolds through a father and daughter's day of helping a lonely woman. I have given this book, and Ladwig's Psalm 23, as gifts many times. They are both absolutely breathtaking and help children and adults enter into the scripture passage from a fresh perspective.
Another Winner from Tim Ladwig

As with his previous books, Tim Ladwig has again shown a unique ability to make religious ideas accessible to children through combining them with a story line from the modern world. This book functions like a visual parable which makes the meanings contained in "The Lord's Prayer" immediately accessible to children. Having purchased Mr. Ladwig's previous books for my young nephews, I know that they respond instinctively to the marvelous drawings and ask for these books to be read over and over again. "The Lord's Prayer" is highly recommended.
