Surprise!

What if your greatest blessing was right in front of you all along?

In SURPRISE!, children and families are invited on a heartwarming journey of faith, hope, patience, and praise. Through beautiful rhyming poetry and breathtaking illustrations, a little girl learns to trust God's perfect timing and discovers that His greatest blessings are often closer than they appear.

As readers follow her journey, they'll search for a hidden red gift woven throughout the story, reminding us that some treasures are found when we take the time to look a little closer.

But the greatest message isn't about finding the gift.

It's about discovering the gifts God has already placed within us.

Sometimes our greatest blessings have been right in front of us all along. They may be a hidden talent we haven't had the confidence to explore, a dream we've been afraid to pursue, or a purpose God has been preparing us for all along. Through faith, gratitude, and praise, we begin to recognize the gifts He has already placed in our hearts.

Written and designed by Johnnie Moutra III, SURPRISE! combines original storytelling and creative direction with AI-assisted illustrations that were carefully guided, refined, edited, and arranged by the author to bring the story to life.
