There are many ways people pray like on our knees, lying down, or watching the stars. There are many places people pray like at a mosque, a meetinghouse, or a synagogue. People pray in silence, or dancing, or chanting. When things don't always go their way, people continue to pray. Prayer can unite us.

Copp beautifully describes prayer experience from many points of view. She writes about her experience with students at prayer and her research on the subject at the end of the book. The sweet illustration reflects many cultures in prayer and invites joy. There are illustrations of every color of skin and also reflects various cultures and religions.
