Prayer Through Pictures is a beautifully illustrated prayer book, designed to make prayer accessible to all children regardless of their ability.

As a parent of two children on the autism spectrum, when Danielle McManus attempted to share her faith with her children, she quickly realized she was teaching her children the words, but for them, the words had no meaning. Using her background as an early childhood special education teacher, she began working on a method to make prayer a meaningful aspect of her children's lives.

Prayer Through Pictures provides parents and caregivers with a practical method of teaching their children how to pray. Many children are visual learners, interpreting the world around them based on what they see. When caregivers want to teach their children to pray, they often teach the words and hope that, over time, the child understands the meaning. Prayer Through Pictures combines images with corresponding words so that, as children say the words, they have a deeper understanding of what their words mean.

This useful prayerbook for children with additional needs provides sample prayers related to specific times of day, with corresponding Bible verses, and includes visual schedules for prayer as well as some responses to frequent questions asked by young children, making it a helpful resource for any parent who wants to deepen their child's bond with God.
