One dark, winter night, an old man wandered, lost and alone in the woods with a single prayer on his lips…
The Sleepy Bear and the Golden Whispers recounts the true story from the life of St. Peter of Krutitsy in which a bear miraculously helps him survive a night in a snow-covered Siberian forest.
The life-giving refrain of The Jesus Prayer penetrates the illustrations and text, introducing this ancient Christian prayer to a new generation of the faithful through this amazing story of its strength.
Vibrant watercolor illustrations and rich text make this story accessible to young readers and enjoyable as a read-aloud for all ages.
