My Stuff, Your Stuff (Growing God's Kids): A Book about Stealing

Habits and attitudes developed in the preschool and kindergarten years affect a child for the rest of his or her life. These years are also a challenging time for parents as children test boundaries (and patience). How parents and children respond makes all the difference in the world.

The Growing God’s Kids series is designed to help young children understand their feelings, develop godly ways to deal with temptations, and form positive attitudes and behaviors that will serve them well in the future. In My Stuff, Your Stuff, parents and children are encouraged to understand the concept of ownership, borrowing, and stealing.

From the Back Cover

Discover the value of respecting others’ things

Sometimes Max takes something that doesn’t belong to him. He steals from a friend, a store, even his little brother, usually because he’s jealous when someone else has something he wants, or because he’s angry when his dad won’t buy him something. But stealing is always wrong. . .

Come and learn a better way to handle things that belong to someone else--God’s way!


The Growing God’s Kids series helps young children learn how to deal with emotions and behaviors that are part of growing up.
