One can imagine a child laying on her stomach on the floor with this pop-up book propped in front of her, enjoying scenes that make the Lord’s Prayer accessible for young minds and hearts. Paper artist Agostino Traini adds this artistic rendering of the Lord’s Prayer to his other pop-up books based on Psalm 23, Jesus’ birth, Jesus’ resurrection, and first appearance to his disciples. A pop-up book on God’s creation of the world is forthcoming.
Playful, joyful, and worshipful illustrations capture the blessedness of hallowing God’s name, seeking his kingdom and his will on earth as it is in heaven, asking God to supply bread daily, trusting the Father to forgive sins, finding joy and relief in forgiving others, asking God for protection from temptation and deliverance from evil, and reverently acknowledging that the kingdom, power, and glory belong to God.
This pop-up book is recommended for children ages 3-8 and offers a wonderful avenue for parents to steep youngsters in the teachings of our Lord. (Beaming Books)
