Tori Comes Out of Her Shell

Tori Comes Out of Her Shell is a gentle, reassuring story that helps young children face loneliness by remembering that Jesus is always with them. When Tori Turtle moves to a new pond and starts at a new school, she feels left out and alone, certain that everyone else already has a friend. With help from a caring teacher, Tori begins to see that Jesus is always her friend, even in unfamiliar and lonely moments, and along the way she starts to find new friendship and hope. Part of the Good News for Little Hearts series for ages 4–7, this illustrated hardback pairs a relatable story with biblical encouragement for everyday life. A parent resource page and tear-out Back Pocket Bible Verses help families continue the conversation at home, giving children simple ways to remember God’s truth when they feel alone.
