A collection of favourite prayers chosen by men, women, and children from multi-denominational backgrounds. Contributors include politicians and royalty, as well as ordinary people. What do a prince and a stonemason have in common? Or an archbishop and an innkeeper? A prime minister and a film star, a rabbi and a footballer, an astronaut and a sheep farmer? They all, at some point or another, pray. Deborah Cassidi asked people from all walks of life to choose a favourite prayer or to write one. She was astonished and moved by the response. The result is this beautiful collection of prayers, illustrated with Jackie Cundall's delightful woodcuts. The inspiration for this book was Lady Cassidi's commitment to the Threshold Prize, a charity which encourages children to write creatively and to which proceeds from this book will be given.
