Digby's Discoveries

Journey with Digby, a typical eight-year-old boy, as he discovers who he is, inside and out. Read about his journal entries on his path to learning more about himself.

Uncover the mystery of why Digby and his classmates are being fingerprinted, what ridges have to do with their fingers, why everyone is sticking out their tongues, and what bumpy tongues have to do with attitudes. Find out what cow licking has to do with hair, what Digby would like to learn to make a new friend, what seventeen different items make him happy, and what Digby says his classmates can do to overcome fear.

Discover how Digby learns the difference between favorites and favoritism and birthmarks and tattoos, why a dog is in the classroom licking everyone, how Digby comes to realize he likes himself, and that although he is young, he is important too.

Bible verses and a few questions related to Digby's journey, and how God sees His precious children, follow each short story. The questions are intended to serve as conversation starters and encourage discussion in the home, church, and school. It is the author's hope that children of all ages will learn that each of them is wonderfully made with God-given unique characteristics-they just need to be discovered.
