Justine Simmons is a costar in the hit MTV show Run's House and the wife of
Joseph Simmons, an ordained minister and one of the founding pioneers of the
classic rap group Run DMC, has penned a
Q&A-style picture book to offer children a template for dealing with
issues about which they might pray or talk to God. A sample exchange reads: "Mommy and Daddy
argue all the time. Do they still love each other?/ God, can you hear me?/ Mommy
and Daddy may argue, but they still love each other. And they love you, too."
Papp's crisply realistic oil paintings-many of them look like artistically
manipulated photographs-feature a multicultural cast of kids and families in a
variety of backdrops from beach to playground to city streets. This wide-ranging
volume has potential as a starting point for family sharing as well as
inspiration for young readers who may be looking for guidance or for ways to
begin a spiritual dialogue.
"More than ever, this generation of kids needs a book like this, one that
will provide them with spiritual guidance at a young age and help them establish
their own relationship with a loving, caring God."
—Rev Run
