Ava, Leo, and the Big Table

Five Read-Aloud Stories About Belonging, Sharing, and Being Together

God made us for each other. This book helps little ones learn what it feels like to belong, to notice when someone has less, to put a screen down and be together, to include everyone the way Jesus does, and to do small acts of love that show Jesus to the world. Ava and Leo discover that the best things happen when everyone has a place at the table.
