B&H Publishing Group will launch a new children’s division this fall called B&H Kids.
B&H Kids will print biblically based books and products for children, pre-teens and youth, including picture books, fiction titles, full-text Bibles and study Bibles.
Initial releases for B&H Kids include two titles with faith-based movie tie-ins and two children’s Bibles.
The “Read-to-Me Toddlers Bible,” available in both English and Spanish, will also offer interactive mobile apps. The “365 Day Children’s Bible Storybook” is also scheduled for a fall release.
Titles with movie tie-ins include “Firebird” – an illustrated tale featured in the new film “Unconditional” (in theaters fall 2012) – and “Courageous Teens,” the latest in a series of products based on the box office hit movie, “Courageous.”
According to Selma Wilson, president of B&H, the new children’s division will “provide tools for parents to build strong connections with their kids. We want to become a trusted teaching partner for parents whenever they need biblically and theologically sound, age-appropriate, engaging content.”
While initial releases will include resources for children age 4 through youth, 4-to-8-year-olds and 8-to-12-year-olds will be the main age group focus. – LifeWay
