Review
"Teach Them to Your Children: An Alphabet of Biblical Poems, Verses and Stories", is a delightful book filled with character building stories and charming illustrations. Each story corresponds with a letter of the alphabet and begins with a short poem to set the tone and ends with an applicable verse of Scripture. The stories themselves are filled with family interactions that are wholesome and provide instruction in a gentle, memorable way. The poem, story and verse fill one side of a page, and the facing page features a charming, full color illustration. I really like the short poems that precede each story. For instance, for the letter 'E' the poem reads, "Everything you say and do Affects how others look at you. Are you known for doing right And serving God with all your might?" Following the poem we read about a homeschool family joining others for a field trip to a bread factory. Before going inside, the children are encouraged to be good representatives of the Lord and reminded that their actions will speak to those around them even more than there words. For children who have learned how to write, the poems and verses would make excellent copywork or handwriting practice. "Teach Them to Your Children" is a helpful tool for parents who desire to lay a strong foundation of faith and virtue in the hearts of their children. The stories and poems are engaging and memorable. This beautiful, hardcover, picture book is sure to become a treasured keepsake that you will want to use with each of your children and later read to your grandchildren! --Cindy Prechtel - Homeschool Reviews for You/Homeschooling From the Heart
