Read All Our Latest Posts WHAT OUR READERS SAY I am grateful for this thoughtful and wise site. I appreciate the careful reviews you do and the way you help me out in my book-discerning job as parent! ~Mary Redeemed Reader is the site I recommend most often to other parents or educators for great book reviews and articles. I thoroughly enjoy reading the newsletter and thoughtful articles and hearing the different voices.... ~Debbie Redeemed Reader is an amazing resource for Christian moms everywhere! I’m always recommending moms use RR to screen books as well as find new series to try with their kids. Finding books for voracious readers in today’s society seems like an insurmountable task!! ~Bridgette I just wanted to thank you for your diligence in helping to promote quality literature that one may not stumble upon on their own. I love your reviews and that you also express to a potential reader, or in my case I'm a parent, any cautions you might see that would be helpful to me in knowing before I hand off a book to my child. ~Marianne I value the input of these folks as they are diligent to bring to our attention so many books which might otherwise not receive the spotlight they deserve. ~Ana We live most of our life overseas as cross cultural missionaries. It's hard to figure out what books are good choices for our kids when we're too far away to hear about them from others or to check them out of the library. Redeemed Reader has been an amazing resource for our family as we continue to search for great books for our kids! ~Tom andKristin
