One unforgettable summer will awaken Hannah’s heart forever.
Seven-year-old Hannah has always been full of curiosity and joy, but one unforgettable summer with her Aunt Grace changes everything.
In a peaceful Georgia home filled with laughter, music, and prayer, Hannah hears the story of Jesus healing a blind man—and something begins to stir deep within her heart.
As Hannah discovers who Jesus is, she learns that His love is personal, His invitation is real, and faith can begin with one open heart. Hannah’s Heart Awakens is a beautifully written Christian picture book that gently introduces children to the love of Jesus and reminds families that God still speaks, still loves, and still calls little hearts to believe.
This is the first book in The Hannah Series, created by author Shaunta Scott, whose own childhood encounter with God's presence at age seven became the seed for Hannah's story. Hannah's faith-filled mama, Faith, is inspired by Shaunta's own mother, Darlene, and her loving Aunt Grace is drawn from Shaunta's real-life Aunt Vicky. In many ways, Hannah is Shaunta: a little girl who encountered God's voice at a young age and never forgot what it felt like to be seen, known, and loved by Him.
Hannah's Heart Awakens is written for children ages 4 to 8, and for the Christian families, grandparents, teachers, and children's ministry leaders who read alongside them. It is a natural fit for bedtime routines, church nurseries and children's ministry programs, VBS reading lists, and family devotional time, especially for families looking for a gentle, story-driven way to introduce a child's very first conversation with God.
