Here is a list of books — both new and classic hits — that will help guide you as you lay the foundations of your children’s faith.
VeggieTales
The first book on our Christian books for kids list is the “VeggieTales Bible Storybook.”
This is a great way to introduce kids to the Bible, as their favorite VeggieTales characters come together to share 20 powerful Bible stories.
Putting scripture into an easy-to-understand context, the stories are told through the NIrV, a Bible version for kids!
Sea Kids
This amazing series offers Christian books for kids that help children deal with a variety of issues and emotions.
Coming from a biblical perspective, these books are transformative and powerful, taking kids into an under-the-sea world that is filled with colorful characters and wonderful lessons.
Candace’s Playful Puppy
Candace’s Playful Puppy is for every boy or girl who has ever wanted a dog and every parent who knows the responsibility that goes along with caring for a new pet.
Written by New York Times bestselling author and actress Candace Cameron Bure, laugh along with this story of a little girl who visits a pet shelter to adopt a cuddly new dog and comes home with a rambunctious pup instead.
This I Know: Seeing God In The World He Made
Join a family on an unforgettable road trip, as they witness the wonder of God’s world. And see how all of the creation confirms what the Bible tells us: Jesus loves me, this I know.
This book has vibrant illustrations and brings the classic song “Jesus Loves Me” to life for even the youngest readers.
God Gave Us The Bible
Then there’s prolific kids author Lisa Tawn Bergren’s “God Gave Us the Bible,” a book that helps kids discover and explore Bible stories, offering families the ability to see “the love story between God and His people.”
Meant for kids ages 3 through 7, “God Gave Us the Bible” follows Little Cub and other animal friends as they ask questions about the biblical narrative.
Lizzy The Lioness
With a unique spin on the concept of bravery, Lizzy the Lioness is a timely picture book in an ever-changing world.
Children will see that bravery is so much more than big muscles or loud roars but often is found in the tiniest people who have the courage to speak up when no one else will.
By asking God for help and then bringing grown-ups into the picture, Lizzy shows kids that being brave doesn’t have to happen by yourself—it happens with help!
