Big Thoughts for Little People by Kenneth N. Taylor
Ages 3-7
Hardcover retails for $14.99
Big Thoughts for Little People is an illustrated book that uses the ABCs to teach children morals and valuable Christian answers. Each letter corresponds with a lesson/word that most of us would love for our children to learn. I really expected for this book to be a great fit for Lala as she is becoming more familiar with her ABCs, however I’m afraid the “lessons” in this book are a little too much for her since she falls at the lower end of the age range.
HOWEVER, for older children, I think this book could be invaluable. Along with each new letter and lesson is a darling illustration and a short lesson (less than a paragraph long) – as well as a discussion paragraph and questions to share with your children. Some of the questions ask about the lesson in general, while some ask about the illustration – all of which urge the children to think a little deeper.
I would not rate this as a good “bedtime” book, but I would rate this as a great “devotional” sort of book for younger kids. With that said, I wouldn’t plan on reading the entire book with your little one all in one sitting – but, perhaps using it as the center of a study where the ideas and concepts could be explored further that day/week.
Happy Reading! (You can buy it
