"Kaylee's desire to be aware of the world around her, and to empathize with the suffering of others, is a beautiful model for young readers. . . . Maeng's appealing cartoon images highlight Kaylee's earnestness, and the 'Kim Family Prayer Map' gives their prayer practice a well-drawn sense of practicality. Children from many disparate places affected by both tragedy and joy are shown, giving a sense of how big and diverse the world is. An affecting story that will resonate with the faithful." – Kirkus Reviews
God hears every prayer!
Kaylee Prays for the Children of the World is an inspiring story about faith, empathy, and the power of prayer. Written by Helen Lee and beautifully illustrated by Shin Maeng, this book follows Kaylee and her grandfather, Halbi, as they read the morning newspaper. While reading, they look for ways to pray for the children of the world.
When Kaylee sees a photo of a sad boy from far away, she begins to wonder, "Does God really care?" This heartfelt story gently guides children to recognize the brokenness in our world and to turn their hearts to God with the assurance that He hears every prayer—even when words feel hard to find.
This book offers a way for families to engage with global issues through prayer, fostering meaningful conversations with children. From author Helen Lee and illustrator Shin Maeng, Kaylee Prays for the Children of the World features a Korean American family whose desire to seek after God will resonate with families of faith all around the world.
