Many years ago, we made a trip to Michigan to see family.? Along the way we stopped into Zondervan in Grand Rapids which is well known for having excellent Christian resources.?
ZONDERKIDZ is the children?s?division of Zondervan for?those ages 15 and under.? You will find awesome Bibles, books, gifts and videos focused in teaching and inspiring children and teens to learn and live out their faith.? I am excited to introduce my readers to seven?exciting ZONDERKIDZ books!
BERENSTAIN BOOKS by Jan and Mike Berenstain
Stan and Jan Berenstain introduced their first books in 1962.? Stan died in 2005 and his son?Mike with his mom continue to create the delightful Bear adventures.? What I just discovered is?the Berenstain Bears?have a new line of books called ?LIVING LIGHTS??which?helps children learn how God want them to live everyday.??All these books?have great morals.? The lovable Berenstain Bears burst back onto the scene with three inspiring? kids books.
Here?s the Church, Here?s the Steeple.?
When the Bear Family goes to the Chapel in the Woods every Sunday, they are reminded of the old rhyme: ?Here?s the church, here?s the steeple?? In this fun lift-the-flap book young readers go on a tour of the chapel and Sunday school.
I?think this is a fun way for children ages 2-5 years old to discover all that goes on in both the Chapel in the Woods and Sunday school.? The two or three sentences on each page, the large pictures,?and lift-the-flaps features makes it easy to follow allowing for the captivating ?attention?of?little ones!
The Berenstain Bears? Gossip Gang
In The Berenstain Bears and the Gossip Gang, talking about others makes Sister feel like she is special, even if what is said might not be true.? But when rumors are spread about her, Sister begins to understand just how hurtful gossip can be.? For ages 4 ? 7? Page Count:?32
This is a great teaching tool for children ages 4 ? 7 about the hot topic of gossip.? I think it can be used for a spring board?of ?discussion so that is why in the back of the book there is a list of activities and questions from Brother and Sister Bear. Children can learn the right way to deal about being careful what you say about others and how to deal with other options other than gossiping.? Included in the book are some fun stickers.
The Berenstain Bears? Perfect Fishing Spot
Papa, Brother, and Sister Bear search for the perfect fish for dinner.? But when Papa?s ideas don?t go as planned, will they rely on Mama?s advice??? Ages: 4-7? and has 40 pages.? *This book will be released June 2011
Children and reader will love the rhyming and??humour about? how Papa tries to search for the perfect fish.? For me this?will be?a fun?book to use? when I use a summer theme in my daycare!? Perhaps you might like to use this book on your drive to a?summer vacation or to a fishing event.?

Cheryl Crouch is the author of ten children?s books, including the Chosen Girl series and ?Escape From the Temple of Mars.???RAINFOREST FRIENDS?are a series that lets your child read with you.?
