New, topical and rediscovered from QuakerBooks Books for Children and Young people


The Worship Kit: A Young Person's Guide to Quaker Worship By John Lampen


John Lampen's latest book is for children and younger teenagers who attending Quaker Meeting. It will help you find a way to be calm and quiet in meeting; how to think about people you love in the silence; suggestions for getting help in the silence if you have troubles; ways of caring about world problems during worship; thoughts on listening, reading and speaking in meeting and ideas about what it is that we are worshipping. A British book, but full of useful ideas that cross the Atlantic well.

The Quiet Book By Deborah Underwood And Renata Liwska


There are many kinds of quiet: Quiet can be delicate. Quiet can be thundering! Quiet can be sweet, and cozy. It will be up to the parent to talk about Quiet in Quaker Meeting Quiet, but this book has all sorts of other Quiet quite beautifully illustrated from deliberate quiet like "sisters asleep quiet" to the quiets you don't think have to think about like "lollipop quiet". I think this is unusually child appropriate for any age up to six or so.
