The seeking of knowledge is obligatory to every one of us. From cradle to grave, the search for knowledge never stops. Life offers so many lessons to learn. As an elder, as a parent, it is our duty to teach our young ones. We are responsible to instigate them the love for reading. And that itself becomes a huge responsibility as we have to guide them through valuable lessons. I encourage my little nephews and niece to read by gifting them books - be it stories or activity, every now and then. Because, you know children often tend to get bored with their old toys and look for new ones. There are loads of children's book in the market but mostly fairy tales and imaginary fun loving books. They, of course, are appealing but at times they fail to emphasize morals and values.
Selecting good books for children is very important. Only that will increase their interest in learning, building vocabulary and stir their curiosity about the world. And that leads to creating a wonderful memory for them. However, we have better choices of books for young adults, but for the kids to start with, to get them introduced to the faith and the way of life, I realized there were only a limited collection. My nephews are still 4 to 5 years old and I was looking for lively, engaging and religious upbeat books that would introduce them to our faith while also focusing on the universal ideas.
My quest in finding the Children’s books that inspire as well as engage is there for quite sometime now, especially after my nephews were born. I came to know of
Prolance Publishers who have released some beautiful and appealing books. And these books are enriched with meanings, and they are suitable for the kids of all age group. They have a selection of the finest books that spark creativity and make the learning fun and exciting. Some of my favorite books from their collection are:A Bedtime Prayer For Peace
