Kids love visiting the zoo, but what if we could connect what they see to scripture through these wild animals? By helping our children engage with their senses, they can come to realize God, though He is invisible, is MORE real than what they do see.
Valerie Ellis is a mom and teacher who understands how tricky it can be to help kids discover and develop a vibrant, authentic faith amidst life’s many challenges, which is why she is passionate about helping families find simple, everyday ways to engage kids in natural conversations, fantastic children’s books, and fun activities centered around faith and love.
Author of Wild Faith: 52 Amazing Animals that Point to Our Great God as well as others, she’s a former public school teacher and a member of Texas Library Association, Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI), and The MomCo (MOPS). Additionally, she supports her children’s book habit by writing grants for nonprofits in Houston, Texas where she lives with her husband, Josh, and their two boys.
