Books are a gift that go way beyond getting a good story in the moment. They show us worlds beyond our own, that love and joy and hope exist in the most unlikely places, that people who are different from us are kind and good and experience the same feelings we all do. These are fantastic lessons to learn at any age, but especially for kids. Emily’s sharing her favorite books for kids, from tales she enjoyed on her own to ones that she’s sharing with her children now. From picture books to Harry Potter to the Jesus Storybook Bible, these books will help you little ones find joy on the page and off.   Thank you to our sponsors!    GREEN CHEF | Go to greenchef.com/simplified10 and use code SIMPLIFIED10 to get 10 Free Meals—including free shipping!   ELFSTER | Go to elfster.com or download the Elfster app to start organizing your FREE gift exchange today!   ARRAE | Go to arrae.com and use code SIMPLIFIED at checkout for 10% off your one-time purchase or 25% off your first month’s subscription!   * * * GET EMILY’S LATEST BOOK!
