Don't Forget to Remember
by Holcomb, Ellie
Ellie Holcomb turns the act of noticing into a spiritual practice in this gentle, rhythmic book. It is designed to help children—and the adults reading along—pause and recognize the fingerprints of God in the everyday world. Rather than offering complex theology, Holcomb uses lyrical prose to point out beauty in creation, reminding readers that even when life feels overwhelming, there is evidence of love and purpose all around us. The pacing is slow and meditative, inviting you to take a breath and look closer at the small details. It feels like a quiet conversation at the end of a long day, meant to soothe anxious hearts and foster a sense of gratitude. This is a perfect pick for parents who want to anchor their children in faith through wonder rather than rule-following, or for anyone needing a soft, hopeful reminder of their place in the world.
