Overview

Trauma changes everything-even the questions a child may ask. When fear, loss, and uncertainty enter a child's world, words often fall short. Big emotions live inside small hearts, and children don't always know how to express what they're feeling. Hello, Jesus! Where Are You? was created to gently meet children in those moments-with comfort, creativity, and faith. Designed for children ages 5-8, this trauma-healing Christian coloring book offers a safe, hopeful way for kids to process fear, grief, displacement, and loss through story, prayer, and art. Based on real interviews with Ukrainian mothers whose children have been impacted by war, author Sherry Barron captures the honest questions children ask during crisis-and invites them to bring those questions to Jesus. Each of the sixteen chapters includes: A short, child-centered story addressing a real trauma-related question Thoughtful caregiver discussion prompts Simple prayers grounded in Scripture Interactive coloring and reflection activities This bilingual English-Ukrainian edition allows families, churches, schools, and humanitarian organizations to support children across language barriers, making it especially valuable for refugee care, ministry outreach, and trauma-informed education. More than a coloring book, this resource also includes a dedicated caregiver section that equips parents, teachers, pastors, and counselors to guide meaningful conversations and foster emotional and spiritual healing together. Perfect for: Children experiencing trauma, fear, grief, or displacement Christian parents and caregivers seeking faith-based support tools Churches, ministries, and counseling programs Homeschool and Christian education settings Refugee and humanitarian outreach Hello, Jesus!

Author Information

While leading a short-term mission trip on the border of Hungary and Ukraine, Sherry Barron and her team worked with traumatized families brought to a family camp organized by Ukrainian Army chaplains. Many had traveled over twenty-four hours by train, seeking hope and healing from the camp Sherry and her team hosted. One look into their weary eyes changed her forever. In that moment, she knew she had to do more. Compelled to take action, Sherry poured her decades of teaching experience into creating a trauma-healing tool designed specifically for the youngest victims of war. This heartfelt book was conceived as a gentle, supplementary, and creative resource for parents and caregivers to use with children aged five to eight. Sherry is the author of six books, several of which focus on helping children understand and cope when a parent has suffered from post-traumatic stress (PTS) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) from the ravages of war. A NASCAR-loving, world-traveling missionary, she delights in sharing the love of Jesus, especially with children. Sherry and her husband live in Florida, where they enjoy sunshine and visits from their married son, daughter-in-law, and their adorable granddaughter. Sherry can be reached at sherrybarronbooks@gmail.com.
