Just what a parent needs to explain conscience to their kids.

Julian Hardyman
Senior Pastor, Eden Baptist Church, Cambridge

If my kids could be five years old again, I would definitely read this book to them. One of the best things about a biblically rooted children’s book is that it helps parents as much as kids. I have no doubt that will happen with this book and while you’re at it, tell your teenagers they can sit all the way across the room, but they do have to listen the first time too.

Wow! This is a great book! Andrew has done a wonderful job of bringing the concept of conscience down to level that is understandable to children. And he doesn’t just explain conscience as a concept, but explains how we can use this God–given tool to grow in godliness. What an invaluable resource for parents and teachers!

Few aspects of parenting are more important—or more commonly overlooked—than informing and fostering our children’s conscience. This book helps parents with that crucial task, and for that reason I highly recommend it.

Good, gospel–saturated children’s books are hard to find. And even more rare is a book like this for kids that points them to the cross while teaching on the topic of the conscience. My children love this book! The first time I read it with my children it instantly led to heart–level conversations together as we considered how best to listen to our conscience as we make decisions. The imagery of chocolate chips and scraped knees kept all of us engaged and brought us into the everyday story of childhood while helping us consider the little voice in our heads. We’re looking forward to reading this again and again with our kids!
