Description
What is your child worth?
The world is constantly shouting at and telling your child that their value and importance is determined by their looks, talents, and intelligence.
But God is whispering to them a different story. "No matter what, you are priceless."
This rhyming children’s book, written by youth minister, Mark Restaino, follows a penny through the hands of her three different owners as she seeks meaning and happiness and eventually finds it in the wishful words of a little girl.
Instill in your child their identity and purpose to serve Christ by being an answer to someone else’s prayer.

I am a full time youth minister and live in the Chicagoland area with my wife and two daughters.
I got the idea for my first story while on a retreat with my youth group students. My other stories also seem to come to me in the quiet moments when I reflect on my life and faith.
I am personally drawn to the symbolism and foreshadowing that God weaves throughout the Bible and I believe it serves as beautiful defense of the Christian faith.
In reflection of my creator, I strive to write stories that capture readers' hearts and minds and symbolically share the Christian faith and gospel message.
I pray that my stories kindle the fire of the faith within you, your family, and your church community.
Thank you for your support.
