What happens when you start missing things?

“A Series of Missing Items” is a heartfelt collection of stories told through the eyes of Ivan, a thoughtful 6-year-old in first grade. With innocence, honesty, and a child’s unfiltered clarity, Ivan notices the simple but important things we tend to overlook in life—helping, caring, loving, thanking, sharing, listening, and praying.

Each of the seven short stories reveals something “missing” in everyday life, something we forget as we grow older and get lost in our busy routines. Yet, through Ivan’s gentle voice, we learn that what we miss most often are the very things God asks us to hold close.

Through his simple tales—filled with warmth, humor, and the teachings of Jesus—Ivan reminds us that even a child can recognize God’s presence, blessings, and love. And if a child can see it so clearly…
why can’t we?

“A Series of Missing Items” invites readers of all ages to pause, reflect, and return to the small acts of love that bring us back to God’s path and to one another.
