Prayer for a Child is a beloved children's picture book written by Rachel Field and illustrated by Elizabeth Orton Jones, first published by Simon & Schuster in 1941.
Based on a prayer the author wrote for her own daughter Hannah, the book's simple, poetic text asks God's blessing for a child's everyday world of toys, food, family, and home.
