When her daddy tells her that those things she does aren't the reasons she is beloved, she has something big to think about.

Beloved was inspired by the chart-topping ballad by Jordan Feliz, this precious story teaches children about finding our value not in the things of this world, but rather in the love of their Savior.

Dove Award-winning musician, Jordan Feliz, along with children’s book author Jes Woller and illustrator Hilary Griffith team up to tell the story of a little girl named Jolie who is trying to figure out why she is so beloved.
