Jesus Vs The Bad Guys
$14.99

Who is Jesus? Authors Jared Neusch and Connor Shram, two dads who love Jesus, want kids to meet the real Jesus.

Jesus is the core to understanding our faith in a deep and personal way. Introducing kids to Jesus at a young age can help them build a lifelong, unshakeable trust in him. The authors’ goal is to provide stories about Jesus that are fun and exciting, reflect the playful imagination God gave to each of his children, and reveal the radical, timeless example of Jesus’ message

Even young children, through God’s help, are ready to know the real Jesus. That’s why each book in this series features key biblical values, presented in a fun, funny, engaging, and lasting way. The story of Jesus Is for Kids! Each book in the Jesus Is for Kids series will help children:

*Build their knowledge of who Jesus is
*Bring them into a deeper relationship with him
*And lead kids to a love of Scripture

The first book in the series, Jesus vs. the Bad Guys, shows what true heroism is through Jesus’ words and actions in the story of his arrest, conviction, and crucifixion. It answers the question of how Jesus defeats evil. The humorous story and delightful illustrations lead children to discover that Jesus’ weapons are different than the kind that soldiers and superheroes use. Available to people (including kids!) who have to face an enemy, these weapons are forgiveness, peacemaking, nonviolence, and love.

Chronicles Of Wonder
$12.99

Chronicles of Wonder tells the story of the imaginative boy born in Ireland who loved books and poetry and grew himself to be a famous teacher and writer. But before he penned The Space Trilogy or The Chronicles of Narnia, Clive Staples Lewis found friends in other stories, including tales from Beatrix Potter, The Wind and the Willows, Phantastes by George MacDonald, and The Pilgrim’s Progress.

As each chapter unfolds, young readers are encouraged by the creativity, wisdom, and humility of Jack, while gaining an appreciation for the heart shaping power of books.

Welcome to the land of magic and fantasy! This is the second issue of the series Bedtime Stories That Will Make You Wake Up. These are a few short tales for moms, dads, grandparents, grandmothers … and for all those who still maintain the magic of telling stories to children. Reading or telling stories to children is a habit that, unfortunately, is uncommon in our day among parents and grandparents, a delicious scene that was buried under the weight of the television, mobile phones, and computers. Today we are so overwhelmed that there is no time to read a bedtime story. But the simple act of reading a story to children at night is more than an activity to lull them: it has great benefits such as encouraging reading, strengthening their imagination, and creating bonds of affection between parents and children, or grandparents and grandchildren. With reading, the child’s talents will develop, while he acquires ethical knowledge and values provided by the stories being told. Thank you for maintaining this magical custom and for choosing this storybook as a tool to achieve that end.
