Candle Walk by Karin Holsinger Sherman is a beautifully illustrated story that invites families to enter into a calm, contemplative bedtime prayer based on Compline, a centuries-old practice of evening prayer from the Christian liturgical traditions. The readers join in a candlelit wander through the woods, listening attentively to the river, trees, stars, and moths singing verses from Scripture. Appropriate for toddlers and school-children alike, Candle Walk is a wonderful way to prepare children for sleep, assured of the nearness of God.
