Hannah's Prayer

By Kimani Upshur, M.Ed.

Hannah's heart ached for a child, and she carried that sadness straight to God in prayer - praying so hard, without a sound, that Eli the priest thought something was wrong. Across ten gentle chapters, children watch God remember Hannah, meet baby Samuel, and hear the joyful song Hannah sang when her prayer was answered. This faithful paraphrase of Hannah's story teaches young readers that God hears sad prayers, and that no prayer whispered through tears is ever wasted.
