Does God Take Naps? by Crystal Bowman and Teri McKinley
Kids ask a lot of questions. Some silly and some innocent. Some deep and some serious.

The content is lively and fun, yet meaningful and respectful of a child’s inquisitive mind. While the books have a strong educational component, the deeper purpose is to show parents how they can respond to their child’s questions with patience and love.
