Best-selling author Nancy Guthrie and much-loved illustrator Jenny Brake team up on this biblical theology of prayer for children. 

Nancy explains in child-friendly language what prayer is, how and why we should pray, and the things we can pray about. There is a Bible verse for each topic, and a prayer for children to make their own. 

This book will introduce children to the gift of prayer and will encourage them to enjoy speaking to their Father God. 

 “Nancy Guthrie gives a gift for anyone seeking to help grow their children’s faith especially as it concerns increasing in the knowledge and practice of prayer. Not only is ‘What Every Child Should Know About Prayer’ immensely practical and understandable, but it is intelligently and artfully designed for little readers. A wonderful addition to the resources for children’s discipleship.” ~ Yancey Arrington, Teaching Pastor, Clear Creek Community Church, Houston

“This is a beautiful book that teaches wonderful truths about the privilege of prayer. Nancy Guthrie writes in such a way that complex ideas are accessible even to young readers. This book is going to be treasured by parents who are eager to help their children talk with their Heavenly Father. I’m excited to use it with my grandchildren!” ~ Alistair Begg, Senior Pastor, Parkside Church, Cleveland

 “‘What Every Child Should Know about Prayer’ is a delightful book with warm and inviting illustrations, as well as helpful guidance on how to talk to God. Nancy Guthrie invites children to pray by teaching them truths about prayer, sharing stories of people who prayed, and providing prayers that children can pray on their own. This book is a wonderful resource for both children and parents!” ~ Melissa Kruger, Author of Walking with God in the Season of Motherhood

“Praying to God is so simple a child can do it, but grown-ups often make it needlessly complicated. God wants an honest conversation about what’s true and what matters. In this disarmingly profound book, Nancy Guthrie awakens child-like faith. The format of the book is perfect for a child and parents to read at bedtime or breakfast. The illustrations are thoughtful. It will take a child from the pre-school to the graduate school of prayer, from the ABCs to the depths of wisdom. God’s beloved children (of all ages) will find this book boots-on-the-ground practical.” ~ David and Nan Powlison, Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation

“It will only take a short time to read ‘What Every Child Should Know About Prayer’, but it can provide a lifetime of blessing. Nancy Guthrie skillfully provides everything you need to teach your children to pray. Get prayer right and you give them access to heaven.” ~ Marty Machowski, Pastor and author of The Ology and The Gospel Story Bible 

 “There is nothing more important as a parent than teaching your child to pray. With children, you aren’t fighting uphill—they are cynical free. Nancy’s book will get you started on this wonderful journey. I’m going to get a copy for each of my children to use with our grandchildren.” ~ Paul Miller, Executive Director of SeeJesus and author of A Praying Life

“Little kids need to know that praying is a vital part of life. Nancy Guthrie’s ‘What Every Child Should Know About Prayer’ teaches them to seek God, no matter how young. Read this book to your kids again and again.” ~ Deepak Reju, Pastor of Biblical Counseling and Family Ministry, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington and author of On Guard and Great Kings of the Bible

 “This is a wonderful book—biblical, simple, engaging, attractive! Just imagine a generation of children enjoying learning to pray, as they read and chat through these lovely pages!” William and Janet Taylor, St Helen's Bishopsgate, London

 “Nancy Guthrie has spread a rich feast on the topic of prayer—brilliantly served in bite-sized portions for children! With charming illustrations, ‘What Every Child Should Know about Prayer’ is nothing less than a biblical theology of prayer for children. Read just a bit each night and let God’s Word transform your family’s bedtime routine.” ~ Champ Thornton, Pastor and author of The Radical Book for Kids and Pass it on

What Every Child Should Know About Prayer

These four books are amazing titles for family devotions, Bible study around the breakfast table, or a little dive into theology for bedtime stories! We love them!

What Every Child Should Know About Prayer

In this book Nancy explains concepts about prayer so simply and uses scripture so clearly to demonstrate the hows and whys surrounding prayer for younger people. Jenny’s illustrations accompany well and enhance the words. I can see myself being able to use this regularly in schools, in Sunday school settings, and with my own family.

Ruth Evans

What Every Child Should Know About Prayer

My two children (ages 6 and 3) love the delightful illustrations in this book, and I have already seen how the words are shaping their thoughts about prayer. I love that she weaves in stories from Scripture so that kids (and adults!) are learning about God's redemptive history with Jesus as the focus. Talking about how Moses prayed to see God's glory, she says: "When we pray and ask God to show us his glory, he points us to Jesus."
