Pastoral Care Picture Books
a booklist of resources for sharing with children

Picture books offer children a safe, familiar context to explore their feelings, learn important lessons and be seen through story. They are designed for relationships, create opportunities to ask questions and spark discussion, and offer language in difficult circumstances.
All of this means they are excellent tools for pastoral care with children.
