My Friend PATCHES Lost and Found Explores Sacrifice Faith and Growing Responsibility
Author David G. Toussaint announces the release of My Friend PATCHES: Lost and Found, a childrens picture book illustrated by Livya Howe and Leanna Weihold. The story follows Gracie, a young girl who shares a deep bond with her horse Patches. After a stormy night leads to Patchess disappearance, Gracie and her family search for months without success. When a later visit to friends reveals a horse resembling Patches in the care of a local farmer, the family learns that the animal, renamed Isabella, has become integral to the farmers household.
Rather than presenting a simple reunion, the book frames a series of moral decisions. Gracie is initially relieved to find Patches, yet recognizes that the farmers family benefits from the horses presence. A personal prayer and a period of reflection lead Gracie to place others needs above her own desires. The narrative traces how her choices affect her relationships, responsibilities, and spiritual understanding.
Illustrations by Livya Howe and Leanna Weihold stresses the emotional arc of the story, giving visual cues that support discussions about empathy, stewardship, and growing up. The artwork complements the text to create teachable moments suitable for family reading and classroom discussion without advocating a single doctrinal perspective.
My Friend PATCHES: Lost and Found is positioned as a resource for parents, educators, and community leaders seeking literature that opens conversations about kindness, accountability, and faith-informed decision-making. The book explores how small acts of compassion can produce meaningful outcomes for both individuals and communities, and how personal growth often involves difficult choices.
David G. Toussaint draws on background in childrens storytelling and faith-informed themes to write stories that encourage moral reflection. Illustrators Livya Howe and Leanna Weihold collaborate to produce accessible visuals that resonate with young readers.
The book is available via major booksellers including Amazon.
