Hurry, Scurry But Do Not Worry! is a light-hearted story for maturing worshippers. It opens the sometimes imposing doors of the church to illuminate the liturgical language of the people, practices, and place of worship. It allows the reader to grow in understanding of sacred space with a smile.

As an advertising executive, I appreciate how well the story is told. As a mother, I appreciate that the rhyme is catchy but complex enough to keep my children interested and engaged while the story unfolds. Most importantly, as a Christian, I appreciate the reminder that we are called to treat all of God’s creatures well.
