Each devotion is framed by a concern that real-life children might have about their work. Examples include: "I don't want to work," "My teacher is mean," or "It's not fair." Each of these felt needs is explored through a Scripture, a story, a commentary, discussion questions, and a prayer. The stories, though fictional, resemble the real work lives of children and parents.
