This week on the podcast, hosts Mike Nawrocki and Tricia Goyer sit down with author Sarah Philpott to talk about her new children’s book, Wake Up, Little Seed—a beautifully crafted Christian board book that blends faith, farming, and plant science for young readers.

From seed to table, Wake Up, Little Seed (Tyndale, February 2026) is an interactive lift-the-flap board book that introduces toddlers and preschoolers to real-world plant life cycles through the lens of God’s purposeful design. With each turn of the page, children discover that growth doesn’t happen by accident—it follows a thoughtful plan created by God, the Master of all creation.

Through the eyes of farmers and their children, readers journey from preparing the soil and planting seeds to nurturing crops and celebrating the harvest. Along the way, kids learn how God provides for our daily needs and invites people to participate in caring for His creation. The story is a joyful celebration of growth, faith, stewardship, and the essential role farmers play in feeding the world.

Wake Up, Little Seed is a faith-filled read-aloud that’s perfect for families, churches, and Christian classrooms. This engaging children’s book features:

Interactive lift-the-flaps printed on both sides for extra discovery
A clear, kid-friendly explanation of plant life cycles and basic plant science
Charming illustrations of a farm family, crops, and farm animals
Biblical themes that reinforce God’s provision, design, and care

Whether you’re looking for a Christian board book about farming, a faith-based introduction to science, or a meaningful gift for young children, Wake Up, Little Seed is a delightful resource for growing hearts and minds.
