18 of 18 people found the following review helpful: wonderful introduction to prayer for toddlers, November 12, 2004 By  C. Blankenstein "cblankens" (vancouver, wa) - See all my reviews    This is currently my 2 1/2 year old son's favorite book. It's a wonderful introduction to the daily cycle of prayers. Very beautifully illustrated. The story is very short and to the point (so that even the youngest child or the child with a short attention span can get through the book easily).  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

5 of 5 people found the following review helpful: But as he worked, he was really growing prayer., December 14, 2007 By  James A. Coles Jr. - See all my reviews    Claire Brandenburg's, "The Monk Who Grew Prayer," is a simple and beautifully illustrated tale. It answers the question that is asked by the pilgrim in, The Way of a Pilgrim, "How does one pray without ceasing the way the apostle instructs us to?" This monk joins his daily life to the hours of prayer and the Jesus Prayer. My kids and I love (and plan on sharing) this book.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: beautiful illustration of how to "pray without ceasing", December 8, 2007 By  Melissa A. K. Lewis "mom of 5" (Santa Fe, NM USA) - See all my reviews    A lovely children's story (good for adults as well) of how it is possible practically in everyday life to "pray without ceasing" as Christians are instructed to do. All my kids enjoyed this book and the artwork is beautiful.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you? (Report this)
