Stories they'll love.
Truths they'll remember.
A beloved Christian storybook filled with memorable stories that teach children biblical character through the choices, mistakes, and adventures of everyday life.
Your child is being shaped by stories.
Every story teaches something.
- What matters?
- What's worth pursuing?
- What makes someone brave?
- What makes someone good?
More than
a good story.
Faith
See what trusting God looks like in ordinary life.
Character
Learn honesty, kindness, diligence, humility, obedience, and courage.
Consequences
Children see how everyday choices really matter.
Scripture
Biblical truth isn't tacked on—it shapes the lesson of each story.
Stories entertain.
The best stories form us.
Take a look inside.
Short enough for bedtime.
Good enough to ask for again tomorrow.
Old-fashioned stories.
Timeless truths.
For four generations, families have enjoyed these simple stories about children learning what happens when they make wise—and sometimes not-so-wise—choices.
The stories have been carefully adapted for today's reader while preserving the biblical lessons that made A Hive of Busy Bees beloved in the first place.
- A bad attitude.
- A dishonest choice.
- An act of kindness.
- A lesson in obedience.
- A moment of courage.
Everyday moments become opportunities to teach something that lasts.
Read it once.
Then they ask
for it again.
Excellent stories!
“My 7-year-old brings me this book daily asking, ‘Can we please read the next chapter?’ We love how it points to the heart—addressing attitudes, obedience, and ultimately our response to the gospel.”— JH
More than a bedtime story—it’s discipleship.
“If you want a bedtime story that ties in biblical character traits, this is the book. Scripture references sit at the bottom of each page so you can go deeper if you wish, and the illustrations are beautiful. The perfect morning-basket or bedtime read.”— Mandy M.
Timeless classic, family favorite
“A wonderful timeless classic every Christian home can enjoy! We’ve read it as a homeschool read-aloud, during family devotions, and at bedtime—and our children have read it on their own. We never grow tired of the valuable lessons.”— Mrs. Miller
Love these stories with a moral spin
“This sweet book is great for any family, but it’s especially beautiful for grandparents to read to their grandchildren. We read it cuddled up at night, ending the day with a story that opens the door to meaningful conversations.”— Nancy S.
Great for all ages!
“I’ve been reading this to my kids and they beg for more. The stories are captivating—I find myself looking forward to the next chapter and thinking over the lesson. A great tool for building godly character in children.”— Rhonda
Bedtime stories with biblical truth
“A beautifully illustrated book that teaches character and faith. Each chapter teaches a new trait—honesty, truthfulness, gentleness, love, and more. The stories are calming and great for bedtime.”— Rachel N.
Memorable stories
“We got this to train our five children (ages 12 to 2) in godly virtues. It’s been great—the kids keep asking to read more and more. The coloring book is excellent for keeping little hands busy while we read and their minds soak up the stories.”— Andrey
A family favorite
“This is one of our family’s favorite books! We love it, and recommend it be in every home.”— Manny R.
Wonderfully surprised
“I was happy to find stories I could trust for my kids—and wonderfully surprised by the content. They’re wonderful for character building. My son, a typical bookworm, read the whole book that same evening and can’t wait to read it together at bedtime!”— Chimone
Some of the best conversations with your children happen when you're not trying to have a conversation at all.

good books
for my kids.”

read it to you.
Simple enough for developing readers.
Engaging enough for family read-alouds.
