K-Gr 3 Most prayer collections for young children contain many of the same selections: ``Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep,'' ``The Lord's Prayer,'' ``Day by Day,'' ``I See the Moon'' and so forth. The principal differences, then, are in the format and illustrations. Here 21 familiar devotions with a Christian emphasis are presented in a handsome, artistic layout, one per page in large, clear type with an appealing illustration. The multiracial children and babies, realistically painted with clarity and elegance in both modern and old-fashioned settings, have a still, meditative quality appropriate to the subject matter. They are praying, thinking, dreaming, reading, contemplating natureall activities with which children can identify. Pat Pearl, First Presbyterian Church Lib . , Martinsville, Va.
