Saint's Guide to Praying with Feet
Description
Author: Amber Rose Prather
Illustrator: Clare Freeman
From the publisher:
Elizabeth has a problem: She wants to pray in church more than anything, but every time she tries to pray, her feet start tapping. How can she pray if she can’t stay still? When a dragon appears on the monastery’s land and the only solution is prayer, Elizabeth worries even more. She turns to the abbess and the saints for help. Through their guidance and intercession, Elizabeth learns that our whole bodies have a place in prayer, and sometimes our spiritual weaknesses can be a gift that God uses for great good. This wonderfully fun story, illustrated to capture the hearts of busy children, was inspired by the life of the sixth-century saint, Elizabeth the Wonderworker.
About the Author: Amber writes from her current home in Iowa, though she began this story while she and her husband were still students at St. Vladimir’s Orthodox Theological Seminary in New York. In her free time, she likes to cross-stitch, cook, and chase around her own, very active, young Elizabeth.
About the Illustrator: Clare is an illustrator, animator, and web developer based in Memphis, Tennessee. She co-owns her design studio, Pretty Useful Co., where she focuses on elevating brands through clear and compelling visual communication. In her free time, she likes to knit, play tabletop games, and spend time with her husband, Jake.
