Little Kicker is a beautifully illustrated book designed to be read aloud to children. Little Kicker is the story of a newborn donkey, and the parent’s desire for their little one’s life to be blessed. The parents of the newborn invite all the animals living with them in the Ozark Mountains to come and pray for their newborn colt.
One-by-one, the animals approach and pray wonderful prayers and blessings for Little Kicker. At the end of the book, there is a suggestion to have a special day of prayer for the child who owns the volume, including a space to record those prayers. Perhaps reading this will be the catalyst to bring about a day of blessing for children who haven’t yet had a special day for them–a chance to ask God’s blessings for the child. Writing the prayers down would be a cherished gift for the child to look at in the years to come.
As soon as the book was opened, and I saw the delightful illustrations on the inside of the book cover, I knew I was in for a treat–and I wasn’t disappointed. I always read a great deal to my children, so I purchased and viewed large number of books over the years for them. With all that exposure to children’s books, I can say Little Kicker is one of the most attractively designed children’s books I have ever seen.
The author has some fun activities in the back of the book for the reader and child to do by returning to the story to find the answers. There is also information about the real life traits of some of the animals that live in the Ozark Mountains.
Little Kicker is an enchanting story of love and affection, celebrating the blessing of a child. The story is written from a Christian point-of-view, and is charmingly written. I think children will enjoy looking at the book, and having it read to them over-and-over. I would give this book more than five stars if I could.
Get this book and make some priceless memories with the child in your life. I have the hardback copy of the book, though it does come in a soft cover version. Remembering my children’s books were almost “loved to pieces,” I would recommend the hardback version.
The author has provided me with a copy of this book. All opinions expressed are my own, and I have not been compensated in any other manner. Despite my receiving the book free, it has not influenced my judgment, and I have given an honest opinion.

The birth of Little Kicker was a very special day for his parents. They wanted to invite all their friends to come and say a prayer for Little Kicker to celebrate this special occasion.
All of their friends on the farm came to offer a prayer for Little Kicker to keep him safe and for him to know God and serve God in an assume way.
The author has not only written a precious rhyming story, she has added special facts and activities pertaining to the farm and many of God's creatures. It's colorfully written and illustrated in a way that will pull the child's imagination into this darling story about Little Kicker and of him being lifted up to God in prayer by family and friends.
I highly recommend this book.
I rate this book a 5 out of 5.

Charming book for children - and their parents or grandparents - to introduce them to prayer through a delightful story about a little donkey named Little Kicker. Included in the book are lovely, hand-drawn original pictures by the author's wife, and a list in the back of the flora and fauna named or included in the story. There are also suggestions for how adults can continue the lessons of the book after it is read. Highly recommended.
This is a book of substance and delight for children. It uses real vocabulary, not limited vocabulary like most early readers. Children can practice their reading skills by sounding out the words, learning what they mean with the help of a parent, teacher, or family member, and enjoy the entire story.
The entire Little Kicker series is well worth the purchase price.

This is another very sweet story about a donkey named little kicker. In this story the importance of prayer is shared when little Kicker's parents decide to gather all their friends and have them pray over little kicker. Each friend prays that little kicker will grow in his love and faithfulness of the Lord, but each prays in their own loving way over their friend. This book does a very nice job of teaching children the importance of prayer and I would recommend it to any family with. Young children.
I was given a complimentary copy of this book, in exchange for my honest opinion of the book.
