Stories Woven in Silver: Pointing Kids to the Gospel Through Children's Literature
By Kathryn Butler, Korrie Johnson

From epic quests and evil villains to happily-ever-afters, there seems to be a formula for every good book. But good stories do more than entertain. They echo deeper truths that reflect the greatest narrative ever written. They speak truth, stir hope, and point us toward the ultimate happy ending: salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.

This concise and practical guide helps parents and caregivers navigate the world of children’s literature through a gospel lens. Exploring Christianity’s most beloved children’s books, children’s author Kathryn Butler and book reviewer Korrie Johnson—both mothers themselves—offer wise advice and tools to improve read-alouds and biblical discussions with kids. Summaries of featured books include accessible content for quick reference, including a brief synopsis, key gospel themes, Scripture connections, and notes for discernment. With the help of this guide, these stories will work in the hearts of children as they recognize both the beauty and brokenness of the world and place their hope in Christ, the true Redeemer.
