👎 Skip It
Teaching prayer to young children through dramatized Bible stories is a worthwhile goal, and the full-cast ensemble with Peretti's Mr. Henry delivers it with energy and humor in a format children respond to. Four stories is a slim offering, and the cassette-era production values show. For families already in the series this is a consistent, reliable entry; newcomers would benefit from knowing upfront that it's very short. Audio is the right format for this material — the dramatization is the whole point.
