The Really Radical Book for Kids

Some books teach truth. Some spark imagination. This one does both—while sneaking in a few elephant jokes and Star Wars Hebrew along the way. The Radical Book for Kids is the one your 8–14-year-old will keep sneaking off the shelf to revisit—because it’s bursting with surprising stories, hands-on projects, and gospel truth that actually sticks. If picture-book Bible stories feel too young and grown-up theology feels like a leap too far, this is the perfect middle ground.

Each of the 67 short chapters delivers bite-sized depth—from how to trust the Bible to what ancient kings ate, how to face fear, or how to build a sundial. It’s a mix of real theology, creative sidequests (hello secret codes and sling-building), and practical how-to wisdom on topics like friendship, prayer, and even historical heroes who stood firm when it cost everything.

With bold illustrations, engaging layouts, and even jokes your kid might actually repeat in the car, it’s structured so readers can jump in anywhere—read straight through or hop around by interest. Whether your child reads it solo or you explore it together, the message is clear: the Christian life is rich, rooted, and wildly worth living.

Best of all? It’s gospel-centered from cover to cover. Instead of polishing up good behavior, The Radical Book for Kids helps your child recognize sin, grace, and the rescue only Jesus brings.

Perfect for family devotions, homeschool mornings, or afternoons curled up on the couch, this one’s built to go the distance—just like the faith it celebrates.
