The Perfect Prize: How Jesus Showed Me the Way by Mistie House is a picture book for young children. A young girl is counting down to the day that she and her family are going to the fair. She's waited all year long and can't stop thinking about what will be her perfect prize. She's too excited to sleep and too distracted to learn at school as this special day simply can't come quickly enough. The school bell rings and it's finally time to go to the fair. When they arrive, the girl is so excited that she ends up losing her family. Instead of panicking, she turns to someone for help. Can you guess who the girl asks to help her and what do you think her perfect prize will be?
The Perfect Prize was a pleasure to read. There are many important lessons for children to learn from this book, and I liked that Mistie House chose the main theme of teaching children that they are never alone, even in scary and unsettling situations. I also feel that the reader doesn't necessarily have to be religious as the message remains relevant in that someone is always there to help you, and the principle is that it's not a bad thing to ask for help. The illustrations are adorable and will catch children's attention from the moment they see them. I enjoyed every word written by Mistie and I hope to read more from her soon.
