New Children's Book Shows Parents How to Answer the Question "How Do I Introduce My Child to Jesus?"
Hannah’s Heart Awakens – Shaunta Scott
Shaunta Scott’s Hannah’s Heart Awakens follows a seven-year-old’s summer in Georgia and the quiet moment her faith becomes her own. Ebook $0.99 through July 31.

Most Christian parents know the feeling. You want your child to know Jesus personally, not just recite what they’ve been told. But you don’t want to push, and you’re never quite sure how to begin the conversation.

Kharis Publishing today released Hannah’s Heart Awakens by Shaunta Scott, a faith-based picture book written for exactly that moment.

The story follows seven-year-old Hannah through a summer at her Aunt Grace’s home in Georgia — a house full of laughter, music, and prayer. Watching a simple Bible cartoon about Jesus healing a blind man, Hannah feels something stir. What starts as an ordinary afternoon becomes a sacred one. She invites Jesus into her heart and finds a peace she didn’t know she was missing.

There is no pressure in the book, and no altar call. There is a child, a story, and a heart that opens on its own — which is how it usually happens in real life.

“I wanted to write the kind of story that gives a family permission to slow down,” said Scott, a mother and storyteller from Daytona Beach. “God still speaks to little hearts. Sometimes the grown-ups just need a way to start the conversation.”

Hannah’s Heart Awakens is the opening title in The Hannah Series, Scott’s ongoing collection of stories about hope, healing, and childlike faith. It is written for ages 4–8 but built for reading aloud, which makes it equally at home in a grandparent’s lap, a Sunday school circle, or a Christian preschool classroom.

Why families are picking it up:

  • A gentle, natural model for talking to young children about salvation
  • A read-aloud rhythm that holds attention without rushing
  • Warm, faith-filled tone with no fear-based messaging
  • A strong gift choice for baptisms, dedications, birthdays, and Sunday school
