When you are looking to raise a child in a Christian environment, you need to be able to provide them with books that have a great sense of moral values. Here are some popular Christian books for children.
One of the most popular sets of Christian books in ‘The Chronicles of Narnia’ series. While set in a fantasy land ruled by a mighty lion, the story is a metaphor for Christianity with strong moral undertones. Kids love the series, while parents enjoy the deeper meaning behind it.
Another of the most popular Christian books for children is ‘Bread and Roses, Too’ by Katherine Paterson. The novel’s author was born to two Christian missionaries, and this upbringing shines through in many of her most popular and beloved children’s Christian books.
Last on the list is the book ‘Holes,’ by Louis Sachar. While not specifically a religious book, the plot and characters and the underlying moral have earned it a place near the top of many lists of popular children’s Christian books.
Christian books don’t have to be overtly religious to teach a wonderful message to children. The books listed here are all very popular, and the lessons they teach are important. Your kids will love reading them, and you will enjoy knowing that they are learning valuable life lessons as they read.
