It is a very exciting day in the house of the Millers. Suzy’s cousin, Deliah, is visiting them.

In this edition of the series Life on Willow Lane, young listeners will develop an understanding of how to trust God with all their heart. This is a great book if your child is struggling to trust God with all their heart and will show them what putting yourself in God’s hands could look like.

A Bit Heavy for Young Children

This is a very straightforward faith lesson and this story would be very useful for if your own child may have come into experience of having belief in a lucky item or such. Though, I found it a bit heavy in context and condescending for young children, I worry if some children would feel extreme emotions if they made a similar error. I feel it is definitely more appropriate for age 6 and above, My 3 year old lost understanding quite quickly and couldn't keep up with the story within the story. Again, this would be a useful tool in correcting an error for an older child . A good listen as an audiobook in the car and a follow up conversation while driving.
