Recommended Books for Kids

These are some of our boys favorite books!
We really like these ones and read them to the boys often so I thought I'd share!

Connor almost has this one memorized!


It's a poem with colorful, fun pictures with a good allegory using the Moon and Sun of how we try to take glory away from God by taking credit for the things He's done for us.


The Lamb book is one of the books we use when reading a chapter a night to the boys... we rotate books so they don't get bored :)

This one has more words and reads more like a story with colorful pictures and even questions at the end of each chapter to make sure the kids understood.


This a great depiction of the gospel starting with creation and showing how sin came into the world and how Christ has paid the price for that sin.


This is the other book we rotate in, reading to them at night before bed.  I LOVED this book when I was a kid and I looked for our copy from my childhood but it was nowhere to be found so I just bought one on amazon.

This one has a lot more words and the chapters are longer but Connor is captivated by the story and runs around our house chanting 'Apollyon, Apollyon, Apollyon!!!!'


This is the great allegory of Pilgrim's Progress in the child's condensed version.  It's really an awesome depiction of the Christian journey.  It's a little dark in some places and some things definitely need to be explained cause they can be scary for a 3 year old but he LOVES this book!!  I'm sure Vale will too when he's older.
