Penelope and The Great Promise Detour: An Interactive Christian Rhyming Story About Faithfulness (Little Hearts, Big Fruit)

About

Does your little one make promises with the very best intentions... only to forget when something more exciting comes along?

For preschoolers, keeping promises isn’t always easy! With so many exciting distractions, even the best intentions can quickly slip away. But learning to follow through, keep your word, and be someone others can count on is an important lesson for little hearts.

Meet Penelope, an adorable pony with a big heart and a very important promise to keep!

Penelope is excited to help her friend Millie. But along the way, one delightful distraction after another catches her attention. There are friends to visit, exciting things to discover, and so much fun to be had!

Before she knows it, Penelope has wandered far from what she promised to do.

Will Penelope remember that keeping her word matters more than chasing the next adventure?
