Where Wonder Leads follows the story of Willow, a budding naturalist always ready for the next adventure—forest trails, museums, zoos, and her own backyard. She discovers the wonder in God’s world, from glowing fireflies and hidden mushrooms to dart frogs and a smiling axolotl. Guided by both scientists and Scripture, Willow discovers that creation isn’t just fascinating—it’s full of lessons about forgiveness, joy, and God’s beautiful redemption.
