Best books for Kids to teach them moral values

Moral values play a crucial role in building a child’s character.It frames the very center of their being and turns into an establishment of their moral beliefs.  Now a day’s children of working parents are learning about right and wrong from school, television or by story books. At Teatime Bookshop, we strongly believe that after parents’, books are the best guide for kids. Books can be a very powerful tool in showing kids the virtues at an early age leading to their development as capable and humble grown-ups.

The steps to build morals should begin with story books having life lessons built in them with characters which children can relate to. The subsequent step should be to allow kids to face similar situations and then imbibe those values.
