This book helps young readers to use the Psalms to pray and find help through the challenges life is certain to bring.
Oliver and his grandfather spend days sitting in front of an old oak tree, reading through the book of Psalms together. As Oliver’s curiosity about God evolves into a deep and abiding faith, his grandfather continues to read to him and pray with him, discovering together the beauty of the Psalms.
Even when Oliver’s grandpa is no longer able to read with him, Oliver continues to cherish the Psalms—especially in times of trial— and he imagines what it will be like to see God face to face and his grandfather again in heaven.
Ancient psalms are made ever new in this beautifully designed children’s book, and kids will grow to love and appreciate this book of the Bible.
As a best-selling author to numerous books and curricula for kids, Marty Machowski draws on over thirty years of experience as a pastor to provide Scripture-based truth and hope for young readers.
Machowski doesn’t just help kids become familiar with the Psalms. He helps them apply what they are learning to their own lives, which is a gift that will continue to deepen their walk with Christ as they grow older.

In WonderFull, Marty Machowski skillfully presents the whole of the Psalter for a child’s easy access, with Christ himself appearing naturally as the overarching theme. As a bonus blessing, the illustrations are lovely to look at. I highly recommended this book for readers of all ages.
Martin Luther called the book of Psalms ‘a little Bible, and the summary of the Old Testament,’ while John Calvin caught the spirit of the book when he said it was a ‘mirror of the soul.’ In WonderFull: Ancient Psalms Ever New, Marty Machowski beautifully describes the Psalms in such a way that it will appeal to children’s minds and hearts, while Andy McGuire provides compelling illustrations. Children and parents alike will learn and grow by reading this illuminating book.
This delightful, beautifully illustrated book not only helps children learn the Psalms, it shows them how to apply them to their own lives. It tenderly guides them to consider God’s Word for their own hearts and lovingly points them to Christ throughout. WonderFull is an easy-to-use, months-long resource for family worship or a winsome choice to read with an individual child.
Using this with my 9 year old daughter for daily devotions. Excellent at helping her learn to connect with Gods word and really helping her to talk about her feelings and how to bring her struggles and joys to God in prayer. We have been using for two weeks now and I’m really encouraged by it. Probably ideal for 9year and upwards.
