About Christevelt Collection books:
Christevelt Collection has a goal of helping to develop personal character and sound principles by providing
children stories written on a foundation of truth so that children can take to heart a message of truth, love,
encouragement and respect for others. It is never too early to start reading to a child and what better thing to
pour into them than quality messages that will last a lifetime. Christevelt Collection stories can be read to infants
to plant seeds of truth. Then continue to read the same stories to toddlers to water the seeds of truth and watch
them grow. As young children begin to reason and make decisions of their own, the stories and questions at the
back of each book can be used to watch them produce fruits of thoughts and questions through productive
conversations with adults or with younger children.

Christevelt Collection is not just putting purpose into the stories, were also giving purpose back to some of the
classic stories, rhymes, lines and games that most kids (and people in general) know. Hopefully, when children
who have heard Christevelt Collection stories hear some of the classic stories, rhymes and lines, they will instantly
be reminded of truth, love and positive character traits.

53:6-7, Romans 8:3). Possible Prayer: Lamb of God, as my Shepherd, help me to be a LAMB - showing Love And
