With all the noise of our modern world, can we hear when God speaks to us? Author Fiona Basile found during her silent retreat that one can only hear God when we silence ourselves to hear his gentle voice. With repetition and sweet illustrations this book will gently explain to young children that we must quiet ourselves and listen to God speak to our hearts. This lovely picture book brings home the message of God's great love for each of us found deep within the silence of our hearts.
