Dr. Ben Carson holding his book, Built on Faith

Why Dr. Ben Carson wrote this book

His mother had a third-grade education. She made her sons read two library books a week anyway.

Sonya Carson raised Ben and his brother alone in Detroit, cleaning other people's houses to keep her own. When Ben's grades hit the bottom of his fifth-grade class, she didn't hire a tutor she couldn't afford. She turned off the television and gave her sons an assignment instead: two books from the public library every week, and a written report on each one.

She handed every report back marked. What her sons didn't understand for years was how hard that was for her — her own schooling had stopped in the third grade. She was checking work she could barely read, because she had decided that what went into her children's heads mattered more than anything else she could give them. The boy at the bottom of that class became the youngest chief of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins, and later a member of the President's Cabinet.

Built on Faith is the book he wrote for America's 250th birthday. It's yours free when you join the BRAVE Book Club today — and it works the way his mother's rule worked. One book at a time, in a child's hands, week after week.

"God has opened many doors of opportunity throughout my lifetime, but I believe the greatest of those doors was allowing me to be born in the United States of America."
Dr. Ben Carson
Pediatric Neurosurgeon, Former U.S. Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, Author of Built on Faith

Questions you might have

"Is my kid too old for this?"
★★★★★
I was skeptical about this subscription when it comes to my 8 year old, he is at an age where he doesn't like to feel like a baby. We got the first delivery and he was hooked! 5 year old and him keep asking when the next book is coming, and they talk about Mr mouse and being brave as a lion all the time.
Carmen A., Verified Book Club member
"Is there any real substance to them?"
★★★★★
Not only are they packed with cutesy kids stories that make them laugh but they break down real world problems into kid friendly and digestible lessons. It's actually amazing the depth in which the stories are written. My kiddos look forward to their new book every month. I would highly recommend!
Christina C., Verified Book Club member
"Are the stories any good?"
★★★★★
This has become something my kids look forward to every month as they show up and honestly I do too. The stories are fun along with the challenges but the lessons are incredible and biblical. Thank yall so much for finally giving us content that our children should have and need.
Steve T., Verified Book Club member
"Is it worth it for grandkids who live far away?"
★★★★★
My son and his wife live with our grandkids 8 hours from us, and we recently came for a visit. They had put up the poster and showed me the activities they had done. When I listened to my son read Brave as a Lion and my grandson chiming in on the words my son purposely left out (because they have already read it dozens of times), it almost brought tears to my eyes! … It was worth every penny I spent for the yearly subscription.

BRAVE+ is our streaming platform for families. Every show reinforces the same Christian values you're teaching through BRAVE Books. No algorithms. No ads. No surprises. Every show is vetted by real parents who share your values. If it conflicts with a Biblical worldview, it doesn't make the cut. You get free access when you join the Book Club.

A Freedom Island adventure map, collectible stickers, an audio card that brings the story to life, and a welcome brochure with tips for parents. It's designed to get your kids excited about reading and learning the values you care about most.
Is this a subscription?+
Yes. A new BRAVE Book shows up at your door every month. You can cancel anytime. No hassle, no hidden fees. The Starter Kit ships with your first order.
Can I buy this as a gift?+
It's one of our most popular gifts, especially from grandparents. You can add a personal note at checkout.
Will my child actually understand the values?+
Every BRAVE Book is specifically designed so that your child understands the lesson after a single 10-minute reading. The stories aren't just entertaining. They're built to make the value real and memorable. That's why we can make the 10-Minute Promise: if it doesn't work, you don't pay.
