The 10,000 Adventures of Minnesota Dan: How I Speak to God: Teaching Children How to Pray

By H. R. Maly and Charles Stratman

In the first books in the series of The 10,000 Adventures of Minnesota Dan, we were introduced to Dans deep and abiding faith in God. When uncontrollable events prove fearful and scary to him, he prays to God for help and his prayers are answered. His faith is tested mightily: during a perilous canoe ride with Rusty, his golden retriever; followed by a voyage sailing through a frightening rainstorm; having a crushed bike wheel which threatens to end a long trip; and lastly, having a mystical experience while cross-country skiing in the Hiawatha Valley.

In this sixth book, How I Speak to God: Teaching Children How to Pray, Dan explores a simple way, through prayer, how to communicate on a personal level with God, The Creator.

In memory of
Barbara LeBuhn,
keeping her close in our hearts.
