When Daddy Prays

32 pp. | Eerdmans | February, 2002 | Trade ISBN 0-8028-5152-5 $$16.00
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Tim Ladwig. A young boy reflects on his father's relationship with God in fourteen poems, some tender, some humorous. Although Daddy is not perfect, his son sees him as a strong man of faith as he deals with everyday worries and joys. The mixed-media artwork focuses tightly on the idealized African-American characters, who are shown large enough to fill the page. The celebration of family and faith is touching.
