Overview

The Little Keepers of the Garden: Seeds of Truth Collection invites children and families into a world where every seed holds a story and every story plants a lesson in the heart. In this illustrated collection, siblings Zara (age 5) and Micah (age 7) discover what it means to be ""keepers"" of a very special garden. Guided by the gentle wisdom of the Gardener, they learn that the garden reflects their hearts-and that what they plant, protect, and nurture matters deeply. This first volume features three parables: Seeds of Truth - Even the smallest seed of honesty, when cared for, grows strong and lasting. Weeds of Worry - Worries creep in like weeds, but when we give them to the One who cares for us, peace can grow. The Thorny Plant - Forgiveness softens the thorns of hurt and makes room for new life to flourish. Each story blends faith, wonder, and nature imagery to help children understand that their hearts are like gardens, full of potential and worth tending with care. Vibrant artwork brings the lessons to life, while Zara's curiosity, Micah's questions, and the Gardener's patience make the stories relatable and memorable. At the end of every story, a Garden Lesson page provides reflection questions, a memory verse, and a simple activity that parents, caregivers, or teachers can use to connect the parable to real life. These tools help children practice honesty, release worry, and extend forgiveness in their daily lives. Designed for ages 3-10, the Seeds of Truth Collection is perfect for bedtime reading, family devotionals, Sabbath rest, or classroom story time. Parents will value its Scripture-rooted wisdom and timeless truths, while children will enjoy its warmth, wonder, and engaging illustrations. As the first volume in The Little Keepers of the Garden series, this book introduces readers to a growing world of faith-based stories and companion activity books created to nurture character, kindness, courage, and trust in young hearts. Step into the garden-and see what grows.
