Do you want to:<\/p>\n

Know which books would make perfect library checkouts for your kids? Or recognize which titles you might want to leave at <\/em>the library?<\/p>\n

Find books that tempt your reluctant reader?<\/p>\n

Select engaging, well-written books for your home or school library, books which are also compatible with a Christian worldview?<\/p>\n

Discover –and discuss– thought-provoking reads for teens?<\/p>\n

Steer your precocious reader (who’s reading way<\/em> above grade level) to books that are challenging, but still a good fit for a childlike maturity level?<\/p>\n

Shepherd your children’s imaginations and help guide your children towards greater discernment in reading?<\/p>\n

Pursue Truth even as you enjoy Story?<\/p>\n

\n\t\tChristian parents and educators struggle to find quality new books.\n\t<\/h3>\n\t

They don\u2019t have time to keep up with voracious young readers or track down books for reluctant readers. <\/p>\n

Parents and educators are concerned about changing cultural standards and want to train young people in discernment even as they enjoy and discover great stories with them. <\/p>\n

Where do they even begin? <\/p>\n

\n\t\tWe can help.\n\t<\/h3>\n\t

At Redeemed Reader, we are parents and educators (and writers and librarians). Our hope is to shine a gospel light on children\u2019s literature, equipping you to make great choices about books for your children and teens.<\/p>\n

When we review books, we rate them on literary excellence and their compatibility with a biblical worldview. We also offer practical resources and thought-provoking reflections to help you choose books and read with discernment. <\/p>\n

If parents and educators are equipped to engage with children\u2019s and teen\u2019s books in light of Christ and culture, then they are better able to shepherd the imaginations in their care.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n\t\tSunday Rest\n\t<\/h3>\n\t

The RR team enjoys a day of rest on Sunday. Be patient with comment moderation and answers to any queries posted or emailed on Sunday. We will attend to them as soon as we can.<\/p>\n
