After speaking at a parenting class at church about Duncan’s Journey, the new children’s devotional through the 23rd Psalm I’ve had published, I was asked to provide a book list for other resources I found helpful.
First, here are some excellent family devotionals:
· ABC Bible Verses by Susan Hunt http://www.amazon.com/My-ABC-Bible-Verses-Hiding/dp/1581340052/ref=pd_bxgy_b_text_b
· Leading Little Ones to God by Mirian Schoolland http://www.amazon.com/Leading-Little-Ones-God-Teachings/dp/0802851207/ref=pd_sim_b_8
