The book is special, given that it was inspired by Emme's daily prayers, and would make for an excellent read for children and families. "Lord Help Me," isn't out until September, but is available for preorder.

Jennifer Lopez shared some cute snaps of her beautiful daughter, including one showing her with the book, and another picture of the book's cover. In the caption to the post, the singer wrote:

In the concluding part of her caption, Jennifer Lopez said that the book wouldn't be out until September 29, but urged her fans to preorder it using the link in her Instagram bio.

"Crown Books," an imprint of Random House Children's Books for Young Readers, would publish Emme's new book. The Publishers' Vice President, Emily Easton, spoke glowingly of the young author.

Emme stole the spotlight in the halftime show of the Super Bowl Finals, held in February.

Easton said that she was inspired by Emme's heartfelt desire to share the positivity and sense of calm that she received through her daily prayers with other children and families.

In a statement, Emme said that she wrote the book to help raise money to save sloths while also teaching other children how they could pray and ask for help.

The 12-year-old added that doing those things brought her comfort. "Lord Help Me" is illustrated by Brenda Figueroa, and is targeted for readers between the ages of 3 to 7.

The book adds another feather to Emme's cap of admirable achievements. The latest of these achievements came during the Super Bowl finals, where the 12-year-old made a cameo appearance while her mom was performing.

Emme stole the spotlight in the halftime show of the Super Bowl Finals, held at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium in February. Lopez performed for ten minutes alongside Shakira on the night.

However, when Emme, who JLo co-parents along with her twin brother, Max, with her ex-husband, Marc Anthony, came on to the stage, it was evident that she had her dad and mom's genes running in her veins.
