Rooney Cruz, the heroine of the Bible Belles Series gains her first superpower- the power of prayer through Hannah: the Belle of Prayer.   In this book, we’re able to teach our young children the power of prayer.  Teaching our kids to pray equips them to face any challenges in life trusting that God is with them.

In the second book, Esther: The Belle of Patience, Rooney Cruz continues her adventures with Mari (her guardian angel).  When Rooney faces conflict on the soccer field, Mari appears again to help her deal with the situation.  They travel back to the past and there Rooney meets Esther.

God worked wonderfully in the life of Esther to save her people. She waited patiently in prayer to approach the king and to present her plea.  As Rooney watches the life of Esther, she learns to handle her own conflicts by trusting God and waiting patiently for His guidance and perfect time.

Our little girls need role models to build up their faith and character. Children’s books like Esther: The Belle of Patience is purposely written to help us instill in our children the importance of patience.  Teaching patience will not be difficult when you have started them young.

The story of Esther helps our children understand that they may need to wait or take some time before a need is addressed or request is fulfilled.   Enlighten them that you may not be able to fulfill their requests right away. By teaching our children to wait, we build the power of patience in them. It is important to teach our children to pray and wait in their younger years in order to build patience, so they will not misbehave or react impulsively when face with conflicts or challenges in the future.

The book of Esther: The Belle of Patience is written and illustrated beautifully and creatively for our little children to enjoy while highlighting the power of patience that teach them to wait and trust in God.   This book is perfect for a bedtime story.
