Wherever You Are

Eight years ago, on an ordinary Thursday afternoon, when my first-born grandson was just three years old and I had the enormous privilege of taking care of him, it was snowing.

He stood by the window in our front room, and as he watched the snow fall silently outside, he was so very still that I took a photo. After a moment, he turned to me and asked, in his three-year-old voice, Where’s God?

I did not know it then, but that ordinary moment on that ordinary day would become a picture book exploring the simple yet powerful premise that wherever you are, God is there.

Neither did I know that the photo I took that morning would be used by Sian James as the basis for the first illustration in the book… which all goes to show that ordinary moments can become something extraordinary.

Published by Beaming Books, here’s the lovely cover of Wherever You Are. I would be delighted if you might preorder your copy, from either your favorite bookstore or Amazon.
