Reviews
"My 12 year old devoured the books on his own, while my 8 year old and I alternated between listening to these and me reading them to him."
"I would recommend it to lovers of the Chronicles of Narnia and the Ranger's Apprentice."
"I liked the first book in the series but it's getting better and better with every book."
"Really enjoyed this read."
"When you get to the end of the book, it almost seems as if the saga has come to an end. This is a great series to read to your children."
"I look forward to the day that I will read this story to my children and my children's children."
"The characters are wonderfully drawn and the storyline is epic, sweeping between depths of sorrow and heights of unparalleled joy and making you feel every emotion in between. Tolkien and their fellow Inklings in high regard (his bookstore is named The Rabbit Room in their honor); I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that he is every bit as skilled as any of them when it comes to telling a tale--maybe more so!"
"When I asked her what she thought of the series, she said "Those are awesome books - they are the kind I would read again and again.""

Best Children's Christian Comics & Graphic Novels

The Truth Is Out There Brendan & Erc in Exile Volume 1
And because Brendan and Erc start their journey at the very beginning, readers don't have to possess any kind of faith to appreciate the thoughtful ideas and arguments they'll encounter. Here is a crazy running conversation about life, the universe, and everything, dramatically recounted via larger-than-life characters, using the magic medium of comics. This comic-style book makes faith appeal to people with questions about logic and reason, and is much easier for someone to read then, say, Aquinas or CS Lewis.
Reviews
"These two fellows, Brendan and Eric, go through a series of events and meet a variety of people as they find their way to "The Truth". The reader is introduced to some deep and philosophical concepts without having to break open the tomes of the Church Doctors."
"But if you are expecting a reader to be entertained and laugh their way to becoming a Catholic, it's probably not going to be that easy with this book. Still, graphic novels and comic books are a great way to grab the attention of some people, and if a reader is used to that format, this is the way to go."
"I bought this for my precocious 8 year old."
"I put this in my oldest son's stocking last December."
"My 10 year old son loved this book."
"What a great book!"
"Great book!"
"Such an excellent way to share the logic of truth to young and old alike."

The Christy Miller Collection, Vol. 1 (Summer Promise / A Whisper and a Wish / Yours Forever)
Bestselling author Robin Jones Gunn packs all 4 Volumes of the Christy Miller Series with enough romance, drama and heartwarming moments to keep you reading the entire series and wanting more. Find out what happens when Christy's parents make an announcement that puts Christy in a new high school at the start of her sophomore year. With a wild grrrr she wadded up her beach towel and heaved it at the mirror, watching it wobble and distort her lanky proportions. “Yes, Aunt Marti.” Christy grabbed a brush and pretended to be untangling her long, nutmeg-brown hair. Her aunt, a slim, stylish woman in her forties, opened the guest room door and looked around. Just myself,” Christy answered calmly, trying to suppress the volcano of fiery emotions boiling within her. Aunt Marti dramatically pointed her acrylic fingernail toward the door. We didn’t fly you all the way from Wisconsin so you could spend the summer hiding in your room. Suddenly the internal volcano erupted with great force, spewing words with the hot tears. They’re rude and mean, and they laughed at me.” Christy covered her face with her hands; the tears oozed through her fingers. “I had no idea!” Her aunt switched tones and ushered Christy to the edge of the bed. It took Christy a few minutes to compose herself before she said calmly, “I don’t fit in with the people here. “Look at me, Aunt Martha!” Christy jumped up from the bed and stood in front of her. “Well, look at me.” Christy stretched out her arms to provide a full view of her 5-foot-5-inch, 110-pound frame. Her one-piece bathing suit covered her Olive Oyl torso like a bright green Ace bandage. You might be a bit of a late bloomer, but really, you’re a very sweet girl, and you’ve got a lot of potential.”. Christy covered her face with her hands and cried until the tears ran down her arms. The kind that makes a person snort and gasp, and no matter how idiotic you feel or how hard you try, you can’t stop. “This is exactly the reason I told your mother I wanted you to spend the summer with us. You deserve more than your parents can give you right now, and goodness knows your mother and I didn’t have much when we were growing up.”. “As I was saying, my goal this summer is to treat you to some of the finer things in life and to teach you, Christina Juliet Miller, how to become your own person.”. Christy blinked and tried to suppress a wild belch that bubbled up as a result of so much sobbing. “Are you sure you’re ready to transform a belching green bean frosty cone into ‘her own person’? Your uncle doesn’t know it yet, but he’s going to take you to an early dinner and a movie tonight.” Aunt Marti swished out the door. Paula, her best friend back home, always gave her advice when it came to major decisions like this. She was the one who helped her pick out the dumb green bean bathing suit! Christy scrunched up her nose and stuck her face close to the mirror, examining her skin for new blemishes. Even her eyes showed the effects of her crying spree; they were puffy and bloodshot. She immediately released her hair and turned away from the mirror, embarrassed that he had caught her in the midst of such scrutiny. He must have just come back from golfing, judging by the perspiration stains on his polo shirt. “By the way,” he lifted his baseball cap and wiped his forehead, “I haven’t told you yet, but I’m glad you came to stay with us this summer.” Then he added, “You are my favorite niece, you know.”. She didn’t feel like showering, and it wouldn’t take her that long to change. Finding the pad of stationery Paula had given her when she left Wisconsin, Christy set to work. I didn’t see any. movie stars at the airport, but I still have your notepad, so I can get. some autographs in case I see anybody famous.

Best Children's Christian Historical Fiction

Storm of Fire and Blood: Sword and Serpent Book III
Tossed on a ship bearing him to the icy northern reaches of Britannia, Jurian dreams of a mysterious woman and a sword driven into a stone. As the storm of fire and blood sweeps across the Empire, Jurian relinquishes his sword and the honor he most desires to fulfill the prophecy along with his destiny.
Reviews
"The trilogy is finished but the adventure continues."
"Other authors do not know how to count, and you get trilogies of 9 books like the Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy, or Xanth that is now up to 40 published and 2 forthcoming in the series. In Fact the only trilogy I liked as much were The Lord of The Rings by Tolkien, and I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga, and for vary different reason. In my review of Sword and Serpent I stated: “I believe that this would have been a book that both Tolkien and Lewis would have loved. I can picture the Inklings sitting with a pint discussing the story and speculating where it would go next.” And in my review of The Tenth Region of the Night I added: “I believe they would have loved this sequel and be eagerly awaiting book III.” And from where I sit it was worth the wait. In this book, and this series, Dr. Taylor Marshall writes in and around the lives of saints, drawing us back in time to when Christianity was a feared and persecuted religion. He has drawn extensively from historical sources and written this incredible tale around truth, and around the legends. But after he receives a word of knowledge he knows that the future he had hoped for might not be, for he will be forced to choose between his faith, and his life. We follow the stories of numerous characters, in different locals who are all being drawn to the Diocletian and a conflict between earthly and heavenly powers."
"This novel, set in the 4th Century, is truly a masterpiece of fiction intertwined with legend and history. There are so many novels today to pick from, how great to have a story that actually Is fun, interesting, hard to put down, and also life changing. The subject here, as in the other 2 books preceding it, is the Christian faith as lived by great saints. In “Storm of Fire and Blood” Taylor Marshall continues the story where the previous one left off. Woven into the tale are great elements of true friendship, self sacrifice, forgiveness, conversion, and enduring Christian love. Here is a wonderful portrayal of some truely saintly lives spun into a very interesting and captivating story."

Best Children's Christian Mysteries & Detective Stories

Light of the Last: Wars of the Realm, Book 3
Validus now knows that the young man is at the epicenter of a global spiritual war, and the angels must use a millennia of battle experience keep Drew alive, for the Fallen want him dead. Chuck Black is the author of more than a dozen novels, including the popular Kingdom Series and The Knights of Arrethtrae series.
Reviews
"Although I really enjoyed the first two books (Cloak of the Light and Rise of the Fallen), I felt that Chuck Black rushed in depicting the main character’s - Drew Carter- life and the plot. Also, you can really see that Drew is struggling to find out if God truly exists in contrast to science, evidence, and all the terrible things that occur in the world around him. Most of the book is based on the realities that we face today, but it contains some things that would normally never occur like a device allowing you to see into another realm and a man with the ability to see angels and demons with the naked eye."
"My children have read many books by Chuck Black, so they were excited to see this new series come out. Since I had not read Book 1 or 2 or this series, when I started with this book, the third of the series, it did take me a little bit to get acquainted with all of the characters."
"I have read this book twice now and it is my hands down favorite of all the books I have read (which is saying a lot since I have read many books)."
"If you like angelic warfare / demonic activity / end times story lines, this will blow your mind!"

Best Children's Christian People & Places Fiction

The Christmas Story
Announced by an angel, born in a humble manger, laid in a bed of straw, visited by shepherds and wise men—the age-old, awe-inspiring story of the birth of Jesus is lovingly brought to life by master pop-up artist Robert Sabuda in six gorgeously imagined scenes, culminating in a 3-D manger sheltering humans and beasts, guarded by an angel above. The renowned paper engineer offers a retelling of the Nativity story...Each scene is accompanied by a paragraph of well-written summary that's carefully integrated into the backgrounds, making the text a natural partner to the exquisite art. As in 2011’s Chanukah Lights , the elaborate pop-ups that Sabuda crafts in this striking pop-up retelling of the Nativity story are constructed almost entirely from plain white paper, save for a few gold accents...the resulting structures have a stark power.
