Anyone who cares about children will find this inspirational--and now practical--treatise a must-read: parents, teachers, mentors, and caregivers of all kinds; church pastors, ministry leaders, and small group members will regard this book as a needed resource for individual and group study; and child advocacy organizations and their members and supporters will also find this an important contribution to their work.

Too Small to Ignore will encourage you to turn your good, loving intentions into strategic actions and empower you to help change the world–and the future–forever, one child at a time.

The time has come for a major paradigm shift: Children are too important and too intensely loved by God to be left behind or left to chance. Children belong to all of us and we are compelled to intervene on their behalf. We must invest in children all across the world. In Too Small to Ignore, Dr. Stafford issues an urgent call for change. His adventures as a boy raised in a West African village provide an often-humorous and always-captivating backdrop to his profound and inspiring challenges. Wess lived the reality of “it takes a village to raise a child” and calls us to “be that loving village for children everywhere.”

Praise for Too Small to Ignore

--Ned Lott, senior manager, Character Voices, Disney

“The first time I met Wess, I perceived this undeniable compassion in his eyes. I listened to him talk about growing up in Africa and heard his compassion. But not until I read this book did I fully understand why communicating compassion is as natural to Wess as breathing is to the rest of us. His journey through pain and hurt reinforces the fact that God does indeed bring beauty from ashes, and compassion from heartache.

--Tamara Lott, Compassion Sponsor

“As I travel around the world, I see so many children in desperate straits–especially children with disabilities who are relegated to the lowest rung of the social ladder. My heart goes out to them! It’s my prayer that through Wess Stafford’s new book, a passion will ignite in the hearts of Christians around the globe to reach these little ones with his tender mercies and hands-on help.”

–Joni Eareckson Tada, president of Joni and Friends
