The Watchful Heart of Simri

Meet Simri, a small but courageous young lion whose name means "watchman" in Hebrew. Simri’s journey is one of faith, resilience, and self-discovery as he ventures into the heart of the savanna, facing unique challenges and uncovering the strength God has placed within him.

                                 

In the first book, The Jungle Awakens: Simri’s First Adventure (available now on Amazon in both physical and Kindle formats), Simri embarks on his first journey through the vibrant and untamed savanna. Among towering grasses and alongside the diverse creatures of the wild, he learns the importance of courage and self-discovery, stepping into his role as a protector and encourager.

As the series unfolds, each book will take Simri to a new and exciting location, such as:

  • The Jungle, where teamwork with herds of animals shows the power of unity.
  • Towering Mountains, where Simri learns to overcome fear and trust in God’s plan.
  • A Desert Oasis, teaching patience and persistence in times of drought.
  • A Seaside Village, where faith becomes an anchor in the waves of life’s uncertainties.

With each new adventure, Simri meets diverse characters, such as a lost elephant seeking its family, a wise eagle offering guidance, or a playful dolphin spreading joy amid trials. These encounters reinforce timeless lessons about courage, perseverance, and faith in God’s greater plan.
