Children's Christian Books

Here's a list of kid's books we enjoy. I will update and add to this list as things go ...

Little Books of the Bible
This box set of 10 Old Testament stories includes miniature colorful books, just right for your little ones hands. The stories are short and in line with the Bible. Stores includes; Creation, Jonah & the Whale, David & Goliath, Noah's Ark, Daniel in the Lion's Den, and others. Stories retold by Jenny Fry & Ruth Hooper - First published by Ideals Children's Books 2002.


Sophie & Sam - When to Say "Yes" and When to Say "No"
This book is based on the book Boundaries by Drs. Cloud & Townsend. It is filled with 10 short stories and lessons learned by Sophie and her younger brother Sam. The trouble we have is only reading one story as the kids want to hear them all! Situations like Say Yes to Telling the Truth, Say Yes to Respect, Say No to Arguing, Say No to Meanies, and more. Each story teaches a valuable lesson and references a bible verse. Author is Tori Cloud, Illustrated by Becky Valentine 2005.

Just In Case You Ever Wonder by Max Lucado
"Here's everything you'd like to say to your children about how much you love them and most of all how special they are to God. (This book) wraps your children in its warm message of love, comfort, and protection. Illustrated by Toni Goffe 2000.


God Loves You
This book is one of my favorites as well as the kids. It reminds them no matter how they look or feel or behave, that God loves them "just as they are" with so strings attached, no working their way to him. Just love, unconditionally beautiful! Author is Kathleen Long Bostrom, Illustrated by Elena Kucharik 2001.


Prayers for Little Hands
This book is much more "formal" than our prayers typically are, but it has 28 very nice prayers it in if you are looking to help give your children a foundation for prayer, or if you aren't sure where to begin, or you prefer a more structured style of prayer. Prayers included for all areas of the day; Our Father, God is Great, Rise & Shine, Big Day at School, Dinner Prayers, Morning Prayers, Bedtime Prayers, Published by Publications International, Ltd., Illustrated by Judith Pfeiffer 2001
