Seen (The Whole Heart)($9.99Value)

Description

Everybody feels invisible sometimes — but no one ever really is. Mira is the new kid: new town, new school, not one familiar face. In the roaring hallway and at the end of the long lunch table, she feels like she's turned invisible… and the only one who seems to notice her is a small brown sparrow. Then, at bedtime, Mom tells her about Hagar — a woman alone in the desert, certain no one saw her, who discovered that God did. He even had a name for it: El Roi, the God who sees me. Mira learns the truth she can hold onto on the loneliest day — she is seen, and known, and never once overlooked — and finds the courage to help someone else know it too. Anchored in Genesis 16:13, Isaiah 43:1, and Luke 12:6–7, Seen meets lonely and left-out kids with the deep comfort of a God who never looks away — and gently grows them into kids who notice others. Part of the Whole Hearts series of gentle, faith-based picture books. It reads aloud for the youngest and independently for older kids. Includes "Talk About It" questions, a child's prayer, and a note for grown-ups. Perfect for new kids, first days, and anyone who's felt left out — Christian families, and ages 5–12.
