BRAVE Books is a Christian publishing company that makes books for kids that reinforce biblically-based, foundational values. Before founding BRAVE Books, Dr. Trent Talbot was a practicing ophthalmologist. He became a new dad when his daughter was born in 2020. As he began to look for children's content for his daughter, he was shocked by the sheer amount of inappropriate entertainment on the market. He saw the need for a brand that parents like him could trust with their children's imaginations. This idea led him to found BRAVE Books in 2021.
A Letter From Kirk Cameron
Dear Fellow Christian,
As a father and a grandfather, I often reflect on the immense responsibility we have to shape the hearts and minds of the next generation. In today’s world, the entertainment our children consume wields more influence than ever before. Every story, song, and show carries a message, and those messages shape their beliefs, character, and worldview.
Sadly, much of what passes as “entertainment” today undermines the very values we hold dear. It chips away at their innocence, distorts truth, and distracts them from the God who loves them. As followers of Christ, we cannot afford to sit idly by while this happens.
That’s why I’m committed to standing with BRAVE Books in the fight to reclaim children’s entertainment. Together, we’re creating stories that bring light into their lives—stories that inspire courage, reinforce biblical values, and point children toward God’s truth. These stories remind kids that they are made in His image, for a purpose, and with a destiny worth pursuing.
One of our largest efforts is the Freedom Island Book Club, a monthly subscription that delivers a new book to your family’s doorstep, each one designed to teach a powerful value through faith-filled storytelling. These books equip children with the tools they need to navigate life with integrity.
But we can’t do this alone. We need a movement of like-minded Christians who are ready to stand with us in this mission to transform what our children see, hear, and believe.
Through your support, we can reclaim entertainment as a powerful tool for good—a means to strengthen families, nurture faith, and spark a love for truth in the hearts of children. This is about more than stories; it’s about a movement to raise up the next generation of strong, faith-filled Christians who will boldly live out their beliefs in a world that desperately needs them.
Thank you for believing in this vision and for standing with us in this important work. Together, we can make an eternal impact on our children and the world they’ll inherit.
With warm regards,
Kirk Cameron
