“Gwen Tells Tales” is part of a series called, “Good News for Little Hearts.” I love these books for the lessons they teach and biblical tools they provide for working through common problems (like lying, in this case).

Personally, I don’t fully agree with all of Gwen’s parents’ decisions, but the biblical truth and Scripture they incorporate into their teaching keeps it a good book for our shelves!

There are bonus tear-out Bible verse cards in the back, too. 🙂
