and worry that feel overwhelming or keep you from reaching your
goals, the skills and activities in this workbook can help you find
peace and take control of your life!
An illustrated reader retelling the story of Jesus meeting with
Zacchaeus. Zacchaeus is determined to seek out a way to see Jesus
even though a towering and discouraging crowd is in his way. But
God cares and Jesus calls him down from the tree to meet with him -
a meeting that sets him on a new path of hope and encouragement. A
reassuring story to help young children talk to parents or those
who care for them about their hopes and challenges, find support to
persevere, and know that Jesus too finds a way to be with them. The
'God cares' series provides a Biblical approach to discussing
emotions and behaviour with children to nurture an attitude of
wellness. Children at different ages approach things differently in
their stages of emotional development, so this series works at two
different levels: illustrated Readers aimed at 5-7 year olds and
Chapter books aimed at 8+ years. Please note that children progress
at different reading abilities and stages of emotional development
so the age ranges are only a guide for parents and carers. The
Bible stories are retold reflecting on the emotions and encourages
children to discuss and relate this within their situations.
Sections at the back provide a reflective space for children and
practical advice for parents and carers. Debbie Duncan, author of
The Art of Daily Resilience, Brave and Gifted, is a nurse and a
teacher, and mother of four children. She has considerable insight
into what constitutes resilience and bravery: the ability to cope,
to stay on course, to bounce back. In her books she considers what
is required for physical, mental, and spiritual durability,
interweaving biblical teaching, prayers, with personal anecdote and
sound advice. This she now applies specifically to support parents
and carers raising children.
