Tomas Looks Up and Out is a warm, beautifully illustrated story that helps young children learn empathy by looking to God and learning to consider others.Tomas Turtle begins his day focused on himself—annoyed by his sister’s cough and eager to brag about his own accomplishments. But when he gets sick and experiences the kindness of his friends firsthand, Tomas begins to see his need to look beyond himself. Through his story, children are gently shown that God cares for us and teaches us to care for others too.Edited by counselor Alasdair Groves, Tomas Looks Up and Out is part of the Good News for Little Hearts series, which brings gospel wisdom and biblical counsel to families through relatable animal stories. Rooted in CCEF’s model of hope and help, this book also includes a special parent section for conversations about empathy and considering others, making it a helpful resource for families addressing everyday heart issues with biblical truth.

"This beautiful picture book encourages readers to consider others' needs above their own and to ask God for the help required to do so. As a mother of four young children who are learning to think outside of themselves, I'll be reaching for this resource often!"Hunter Beless, Founder of Journeywomen Ministries; author of Read It, See It, Say It, Sing It! and Amy Carmichael: The Brown-Eyed Girl Who Learned to Pray"I am personally thankful that this series keeps growing! Each book offers me a way to engage with my children about how to live out our Christian faith without being preachy or lecturing! In Alasdair Groves's new addition, kids will find Tomas relatable and will learn along with him just how good, sweet, and right it is when we care for the people around us and earnestly seek their good."Lauren Whitman, Faculty and Counselor, Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation (CCEF); author of A Biblical Counseling Process"We all (children and adults!) need reminders to look beyond ourselves and our own interests and to remember the joy of truly seeing and considering others. Groves has written a refreshing and relatable story that helps children see the beauty of Christ's heart of outward love and encourages them to grow to be more like him. What a gift that the precious young ones in our lives can be shepherded in this way."Esther Liu, Faculty and counselor, Christian Counseling & Educational Foundation (CCEF)
