Lily and Bartholomew's Big Adventure____A Heartwarming Tale of Faith, Friendship, and a Forest Quest.

Lily and her loyal bear, Bartholomew, love to explore the whispering wonders of the Great Forest together. But when a playful game of hide-and-seek takes an unexpected turn, the two friends find themselves separated in the deep woods.

Left alone in the quiet shadows, Lily must lean on her faith and find the courage to ask for help. Through a sincere prayer and a creative drawing of her missing friend, Lily meets a helpful squirrel who might just hold the key to reuniting the duo.

This 30-page picture book is a gentle reminder for children that even when we feel lost, we are never truly alone. Through rhythmic prose and vibrant illustrations, young readers will discover the power of prayer and the beauty of finding help in the most unexpected places.

This book is a perfect fit for home, school, and church libraries, offering:

• Faith in Action: A relatable example of prayer and trusting in God's guidance during difficult moments.
• Creative Problem-Solving: Shows how Lily uses her art and her kindness toward others (like the squirrel) to solve her problem.
• Social-Emotional Learning (SEL): Explores themes of worry, bravery, and the importance of helping those in need.

Designed for children ages 3-7, Lily and Bartholomew's Big Adventure is an enchanting read-aloud that celebrates the bond of friendship and the quiet strength found in faith.
