Explore the power of forgiveness in Pastor Joby Martin's first children's book about two siblings who discover that forgiveness, while not always easy, is a powerful way to show Jesus' love and make things right.
Twins Daisy and Dylan do everything together. But when one of them is left out at recess, they find themselves with big feelings they don't know how to navigate. Confused and hurt, the kids look to their grandpa for comfort. Papa explains how Jesus forgives us with love when we make mistakes, so we should learn to forgive others too, even when it's difficult.
Now that they're looking for it, Daisy and Dylan begin to see acts of forgiveness and kindness all around them--between strangers, friends, and family members! Inspired by others' ability to forgive and Papa's words, they finally learn to forgive each other.
