The Tallest of Smalls

An encouraging message for children: When you feel like you're the smallest of smalls, Jesus' love can make you feel like the tallest of talls.

This is a delightful rhyming story about the Too-Smalls who live in Stiltsville.

Every evening at six, the Too-Smalls meet in the square where they hope they'll be picked to receive stilts to strut about above the stilt-less masses below.

They come to see if they matter - if they're awesome, if they're pretty, if they're clever, or funny.

Ollie, the smallest of too-smalls, please to be picked.

He wants to be like the high-ups of Stiltsville who are proud of their stilts, the ultimate status.

But once he gets stilts, oh how it hurts when he stumbles and tumbles and loses his stilts.

That is...until he meets Jesus who chose low over high telling him, 'Keep your feet on the ground.

You matter already.' This book for kids coordinates with Max's trade book, "Fearless", releasing in November 2009.
