Read Think Pray Do (Paperback) by Simon Camilleri | Teaching Kids to Engage with God’s Word (Paperback) by Simon Camilleri and Dominic On

Join a dad and his daughter once again as they brave the great adventure of reading the Bible.

Read Think Pray Do by Simon Camilleri is a delightful and thoughtful children's book designed to help kids explore the Bible and learn how to engage with God’s Word.

This is a sequel to Wow God! Thank You, Sorry, Please – a kid’s guide to prayer. Targeted at a slightly older audience, it guides kids in not only why they should read the Bible, but how they can, with their parent’s help, approach doing so.

Through cheerful rhymes and joyful illustrations, Simon introduces four simple steps—read, think, pray, do—making it easy for children to develop gospel habits that can last a lifetime.

This book isn't just about reading the Bible—it's about helping children understand it, talk to God about it, and live it out in their daily lives. With a focus on simplicity and spiritual depth, it’s a brilliant resource for parents, Sunday schools, and children’s ministries.

Ideal for ages 4–7, Read Think Pray Do equips little hearts and minds to grow in their love for Jesus and His Word, one verse and action at a time.

Really engaging with beautiful illustrations

This fantastic little book helps children understand why it's important to read the bible - a topic I've not seen much else written on for kids, even though it's so important! Wonderfully written, with gorgeous illustrations.

This book is absolutely amazing!

I got this book for my girls yesterday — Read Think Pray Do by Simon Camilleri — and it's absolutely amazing! It's a guide for kids on how to read the Bible. Such an important topic, one that can be really hard to explain to children and even harder for them to understand. But this rhyming book does it so simply and beautifully. It breaks things down in a way that’s easy to grasp, yet so deep and meaningful. I encourage you to check it out. You and your kids will truly be blessed by it!
