Through the true-to-life story of Lucas, Dr. Scott James helps children discover that God cares for them even when they are sick. When Lucas wakes up with a sore throat, his parents show that God is always caring for him, remind him that Jesus is with him on difficult days, and encourage him to ask Jesus for help. A visit to the doctor teaches Lucas why it is important to care for others and to take simple precautions to avoid spreading illness.
This timely book helps parents and caregivers talk with children about illness and how to keep themselves and others safe when sick. Children will learn that although anyone can get sick, God remains with them through whatever they face, and they can show God's love by helping to protect friends, family, and neighbors.
God Cares for Me is part of the God Made Me series, which equips parents to have important, impactful conversations with their children. Each book in the series contains a special section just for parents and caregivers that provides biblical guidance and offers additional information and talking points about the topic addressed in the story.
