The Lord's Prayer for Little Ones

Allia Zobel Nolan & Janet Samuel

Teaching little ones about prayer is one of the most important responsibilities and privileges of parents and grandparents. Author Allia Zobel Nolan, creator of The Ten Commandments for Little Ones, shares a child-friendly journey through the Lord’s Prayer to help parents create a legacy of talking to God anytime, anywhere, about anything. 

Give us this day our daily bread

Father, You always give us what we need.
So we pray for enough food for today.
You know how to take care of your children.
So we never have to worry.

Clever, fun art engages children ages 3-8 while the “Dig Deeper” sections and definitions help parents nurture faith conversations with their children and a sense of how much God loves them.

This tender invitation to a life of prayer is ideal for parents and grandparents to have in their homes and to give to the children they adore.

A Word from the Author

“What I’m hoping this book will do is help children start this faith habit by learning the prayer Jesus, Himself, prayed to His Father, in a slow, deliberate way, so that the words become precious and not rote. In this way, little ones can know the comfort and security that prayer brings, now and as they grow in love for the Lord, and Our Father in Heaven.
 
“I also hope you and your little ones enjoy the sign interpretations of the prayer at the back of the book, and the ‘Dig Deeper,’ and ‘Word Meaning’ sections. Enjoy.”
Allia Zobel Nolan, author of The Lord's Prayer for Little Ones

Editorial Reviews

“It is an excellent introduction or further exploration of the Lord’s Prayer.”
Christian Marketplace


“Nolan's skillfully crafted text allows children to feel as though they are an important part of the story, rather than the targets of a lesson. Samuel's illustrations evoke a feeling of happiness and tell stories themselves with many objects for little readers to discover and question.”

“This book has everything going for it.”
—Christian Children’s Book Review

Endorsements

“Sweetly inspirational and although geared for children, The Lord’s Prayer for Little Ones contains the ability to take adults back to a simpler time, where faith was grounded in family and prayer became a staple of life. The book contains a breakdown of The Lord’s Prayer; the center prayer for all of Christian faith gets broken down to its simplest, purest form to help a child understand the meaning behind the words. The delightful illustrations included help to keep the child’s mind focused and engaged.”
Mary Anne Miller, FelineExpress.com


“Parents belonging to any Christian denomination will welcome this charming book, which explains the Lord's Prayer in age-appropriate language that all children, from pre-school to grades three or four, will understand and appreciate. It would make a wonderful baby gift, with lively and colorful illustrations by Janet Samuel that depict boys and girls, of various ages and all races and ethnic origins, engaged in a variety of activities.
 
“Special features of this delightful book include a "Digging Deeper" section that poses questions and provides answers, and a glossary of words young children may not know. This is yet another wonderful book by the talented Allia Zobel Nolan, whose children's and adult titles have brought both comfort and smiles.”
Barbara Florio Graham, SimonTeakettle.com


“I wanted this book because I have several great nieces and great nephews I was hoping would benefit from this book. After reading through the entire book (the illustrations are top-notch as well), I am confident my family of little ones will be able to learn about this Prayer much easier than I remember learning it from our big Holy Bible.  In today's society, we want children to get excited learning about religion and, in my opinion, books like this are what we need to accomplish that goal.
