Faith & Heart Picture Books

A growing collection of picture books for children carrying big feelings in very small hearts.

Every classroom has one.

Every homeschool table has one.

Every parent knows the feeling of watching them and wondering how to help.

The child who feels everything at full volume. The child who asks difficult questions long after bedtime. The child whose mind keeps spinning long after the lights go out.

The Faith & Heart collection was created for children like that.

These are gentle, faith-rooted picture books about wonder, courage, nighttime fears, tender hearts, and the quiet work of learning how to rest in what is true.

Not stories that preach at children.

Stories that sit beside them.

These books are rooted in Scripture, emotional honesty, and the belief that children do not need perfect words nearly as much as they need hope, gentleness, and truth they can carry with them.

Because sometimes the right story does more than calm a child.

Sometimes it helps them feel seen.

Lovely Nothing

When my son Shea was little, he could not sleep.

Not because he was afraid of the dark.

Because his mind was full.

I searched for a picture book about childhood insomnia. A story that understood what it feels like when a child’s brain simply will not stop at night.

I searched and came up empty.

So I wrote the one we needed.

Lovely Nothing is a gentle story about a little boy whose thoughts grow big and noisy after dark. The quiet racing thoughts so many children carry alone.

But as his mind slowly turns toward what is lovely, true, and good, something begins to change.

The good things grow bigger.

And the scary things begin to lose their grip.

Rooted in Philippians 4:8, Lovely Nothing is a faith-rooted picture book about childhood insomnia, anxious thoughts at bedtime, and the quiet power of helping children rest in what is good.

For the child lying awake.

For the parent sitting beside the bed not knowing what else to say.

For the family searching for stories that help children feel safe, understood, and gently pointed back toward peace.

If you have been searching for that book too, you are in the right place. It is almost here.
