Kid’s stories just aren’t what they used to be. In looking over a selection from the local bookstore chain, we were disappointed to see nothing but cardboard fold over books. These books have no storyline and offer no lesson of any value. This is not to say that all children’s books must have a moral. But they should offer valid entertainment in the form of a smile or a soothing moment. The point of books for our children is to feed their minds and spirits with positive happy thought.
Great children’s stories are few and far between these days. Other than the few prize winning books brought out every year, the majority of new work for kids is simply a collective rehash of stories from television. Here at The Children’s Bookstore we work hard to find hidden treasures for children that otherwise might not be brought to your attention. We sell the best work from the best independent publishers. No you won’t find Disney characters floating around our pages. But you will find delightful tales filled with clever ideas and adventure.
Looking for good kid’s stories online? The Children’s Bookstore is the place to find them. We offer a unique selection of charming stories. These are tales that are seldom seen today. No, there are no transforming robots or discussions of why everyone poops. We fill pages with characters that your child will identify with such as Su Tai the brave young girl in “The Heart of Nine Tigers.” Even our little mouse in “Bartram and the Blue Morning Glory” will let your child see through his eyes. These are the most beautiful books offered anywhere online.
Our animal wildlife book “Alligators Can’t Stand Butterflies” is a wonderful collection of six short stories for kids. Each of the chapters can be read as a standalone story but still is tied to the others in its overall context and setting. One of the stories takes the young reader deep into the woods to study Florida Black Bears. Another tours a Florida Swamp filled with toothy alligators. All of the stories share knowledge about the migrating birds and insects who live in the Saint Marks Wildlife Refuge along the coast of Florida. And all of stories are filled with surprises and fun.
Most of the books offered at The Children’s Bookstore could hardly be called children’s short stories. A few of our books contain wonderful short story collections, but most of our titles allow characters and plots to fully develop. Our books have beautiful positive messages in them with examples of courage and faith that your child will take to heart. These books are written for kids from seven to seventy, so moms and dads are never bored reading them. All of our books are constructed to a higher than library standard, so as years pass the books will survive to be passed down to younger siblings.
