Customer Reviews

A "must-have" resource for those who work with children

We purchased every book in this series. One student (11) goes to the bookshelf and reads through them on a regular basis. This same student marks the stories he likes and insistently says, "Please read this one & then share it with the class". Every book has numerous stories tagged for my attention with Post-It Notes. If that isn't a glowing endorsement of the series, I don't know what could be better. Great read-aloud book for the younger ones and excellent for independent reading with the older students during choice or reading time.

Great for Family Devotions

I bought the whole set of these a couple years ago. We read them for devotionals at night as a family. They have short little stories that usually didn't take long but they make you think. So they are great if you have a family of mixed ages. Once in a while there will be a long story but all the stories are marked whether they are short or long. The stories are also based in the past so you are learning a bit of history as well. We learned a lot through reading them.

Building on the Rock

Excellent Christ centered stories with scripture reading. Each story has a personal application and questions for children to examine themselves in light of Biblical truth. Great for daily devotions with elementary school age and older children.
